PREFACE. 


To  trace  the  features,  develope  the  resources,  and  record  the  improvements  of  any 
portion  of  the  earth,  has  been  always  regarded  by  those  desirous  of  possessing  general 
information^  as  a  topic  worthy  of  peculiar  attention ;  and  to  no  portion  of  mankind  do 
these  subjects  present  more  interesting  views,  than  to  the  citizens  of  the  United  States. 
Occupying  a  vast  region,  yet  but  partially  explored,  and  operating  on  a  system  of 
internal  improvements  on  a  grander  scale  than  any  other  people,  they  are  marching 
forward  to  national  greatness,  with  a  rapidity  unexampled  in  the  annals  of  the  world. 
These  circumstances  have  caused  works  which  illustrate  the  geography,  topography, 
and  statistics  of  the  Union,  to  be  regarded  with  general  attention ;  and,  not  unfrequently, 
to  be  liberally  patronized. 

This  Accompaniment,  together  with  the  Map  to  which  it  is  an  appendix,  is  respectfully 
offered  by  the  publisher  to  his  fellow-citizens,  under  the  persuasion,  that  (together)  they 
will  be  found  to  contain  a  greater  amount  of  useful  geographical,  topographical,  and 
statistical  information,  than  any  similar  work  hitherto  published  in  the  country. 

A  principal  object  intended  in  the  compilation  of  the  Map,  is  the  representation  of 
all  the  local  and  civil  divisions  of  the  different  States,  so  arranged  as  to  connect  with 
the  census  of  1830,  as  published  by  authority  of  Congress.  This  object  has  been 
strictly  kept  in  view ;  and  it  is  believed,  that  the  location  of  every  civil  division  in  the 
Union  is  exhibited  on  the  Map:  and,  in  the  Consulting  Index,  the  name,  with  the  popu- 
lation of  each,  will  be  found  in  its  proper  place,  according  to  alphabetical  arrangement. 
In  the  Index,  many  towns,  and  also  several  counties,  will  be  found  without  the  numbers 
of  the  population  annexed.  In  the  case  of  the  latter,  this  has  occurred  in  consequence 
of  their  having  been  organized  since  1830;  and,  in  the  former,  the  deficiency  is  owing 
to  the  want  of  a  uniform  system  in  the  manner  of  taking  the  census. 

The  subdivisions,  into  which  the  several  States  of  the  Union  are  divided,  are  styled 
counties,  with  the  exception  of  the  States  of  South  Carolina  and  Louisiana :  in  the 
former,  they  are  termed,  districts;  and,  in  the  latter,  parishes.  In  the  six  New  England 
States,  and  also  in  the  States  of  New  York,  New  Jersey,  Pennsylvania,  Ohio,  Indiana, 
and  the  Territory  of  Michigan,  the  counties  are  subdivided  into  townships  ;*  in  Dela- 
ware, into  hundreds ;  and,  in  South  Carolina,  the  districts  of  Charleston,  Colleton,  and 
Beaufort,  are  subdivided  into  parishes ;  but,  in  the  rest  of  the  States,  no  such  subdivision 
as  that  of  township  is  known,  except  in  Arkansas  Territory ;  which  circumstance  was 
not,  however,  noticed  in  the  census.  In  the  States  above  specified,  whose  counties  are 
subdivided  into  townships,  the  population  in  each  township  is  given;!  with  the  addition, 
that,  in  Ohio,  the  numbers,  in  a  majority  of  the  towns  and  villages,  are  also  stated  in  the 
census ;  and,  in  the  State  of  Delaware,  the  amount  is  given  by  hundreds.  From  these 
data,  the  aggregate  amount  of  the  respective  counties  has  been  made  up.  In  all  the 
other  States,  the  census  was  taken  by  counties,  reckoning  the  districts  of  South  Carolina, 


*  In  the  New  Ensrland  States,  the  subdivisions  of  the  counties,  although  precisely  similar  to  the 
townships  of  New  York,  New  Jersey,  &c.,  are  styled  towns. 

t  In  Pennsylvania,  the  population  of  Jefferson,  Lycoming,  Pike,  and  Potter  counties,  is  given  in 
the  census,  without  distinguishing  that  of  the  townships  into  which  they  are  divided:  and,  in 
Huntingdon  county,  the  population  of  twelve  townships  is  given,  in  a  body,  under  the  designation 
of  John  B.  Mick's  share  of  Huntingdon  county.  In  the  State  of  Indiana,  the  population  of  the 
townships  in  seventeen  counties  only  is  given,  of  sixty-three,  into  which  the  State  was  divided 
in  1830.

and  the  parishes  of  Louisiana,  divisions  of  the  same  nature.  In  Kentucky,  however, 
the  greater  part  of  the  towns  and  villages  are  given,  in  addition  to  that  of  the 
counties. 

The  absence  of  an  alphabetical  arrangement  in  a  considerable  portion  of  the  census 
of  1830,  as  published  by  authority,  was  productive,  in  the  formation  of  the  Index,  of  a 
vast  increase  in  the  amount  of  the  labor  and  perplexity,  always  attending  works  of 
that  kind.  The  endless  pluralities  of  the  names  of  places  in  the  United  States,  is  well 
known ;  and  is  the  cause,  in  numerous  instances,  of  great  perplexity ;  especially,  to 
men  of  business,  in  the  receipt  and  transmission  of  letters,  &c.  This  will  be  at  once 
evident,  when  it  is  known,  that,  on  the  map,  and  consequently  in  the  United  States, 
there  are  100  counties,  towns,  &c.  bearing  the  venerated  name  of  Washington ;  79,  of 
Jackson ;  73,  of  Franklin ;  66,  of  Jefferson ;  and,  in  fact,  an  unceasing  repetition  of 
the  names  of  all  our  popular  public  men,  and  Revolutionary  patriots ;  a  circumstance 
proving,  however,  that  the  services  of  distinguished  public  men  have  a  strong  hold  on 
the  affections  of  the  people  of  the  United  States.  The  Index  and  Map  will,  it  is 
believed,  obviate,  in  a  majority  of  cases,  difficulties  of  this  kind,  by  determining,  at 
once,  the  county  and  State  in  which  the  place  sought  for  is  located ;  which  could  not 
be,  perhaps,  ascertained,  without  the  assistance  of  such  a  work,  except  at  the  expense 
of  considerable  time  and  trouble.  The  distances,  in  miles,  attached  to  the  different 
towns,  <fec.  from  Washington  city,  and  from  their  respective  State  capitals,  will  to  all 
persons  be  interesting ;  and,  to  many,  more  or  less  useful.  They  are  derived  from  the 
most  authentic  source  in  the  country,  viz.  the  General  Post  Office ;  for  assistance  in 
which  respect,  the  publisher  is  particularly  indebted  to  Colonel  Gardner,  of  that 
department 

The  Index  of  Rivers,  and  the  plan  adopted  for  ascertaining  their  respective  places  in 
the  Map,  are  now  introduced  in  a  work  of  this  kind,  for  the  first  time ;  the  utility  of 
which,  we  think,  will  be  obvious  to  every  one  who  has  ever  had  occasion  to  consult 
a  map. 

The  plan  and  the  limits  prescribed  for  this  work,  preclude  any  but  the  most  brief 
geographical  details.  Those  introduced  in  the  general  view  of  the  Union,  and  in  the 
individual  States,  are  adopted  more  for  the  purpose  of  classifying  the  topographical  and 
statistical  information  considered  necessary  for  elucidating  and  increasing  the  utility 
of  the  map,  than  with  any  expectation  of  adding  new  facts,  or  of  exhibiting  any  views 
in  addition  to  those  found  in  the  numerous  geographical  publications  already  before 
the  public. 

The  statements,  with  regard  to  the  Canals  and  Rail-Roads,  are  made  in  reference  to 
their  present  condition,  as  nearly  as  information  could  be  obtained.  The  activity,  and 
even  enthusiasm,  displayed,  of  late,  in  the  United  States,  on  this  subject,  and  the  rapidity 
with  which  new  works  and  schemes  of  this  kind  are  created,  render  it  almost  impossible 
for  any  one,  whatever  may  be  his  means  of  information,  to  keep  pace  with  what  is 
daily  springing  into  existence,  in  every  part  of  the  Union. 

The  Stage  Routes,  introduced  under  the  heads  of  the  respective  States,  will,  it  is 
presumed,  be  found  of  considerable  utility,  by  those  who  may  be  desirous  of  ascertain- 
ing the  various  actual  lines  of  communication  throughout  the  different  parts  of  the 
Union.  These  are  also  represented  on  the  Map,  and  may  be  easily  traced,  being 
distinguished  in  the  engraving  from  the  common  roads.  The  distances,  in  miles,  are 
ikcwisc  attached  to  them,  except  in  cases  where  their  introduction  was  found  to  con- 
flict with  the  names  of  towns,  &c.  already  engraved.  In  all  such,  the  printed  Routes 
supply  the  deficiency.  Although  the  number  of  Stage  Routes  given  amount  to 

wly  400,  it  is  not  pretended  these  present  a  complete  view  of  this  branch  of  topography. 


PREFACE. 


There  are,  doubtless,  some  small  lines  of  communication,  in  different  parts  of  the 
Union,  of  which  information  could  not  be  obtained :  altogether,  however,  they  presen 
a  more  extended  and  complete  system,  than  has  yet  been  brought,  in  one  mass,  before 
the  public. 

Errors  in  orthography,  both  on  the  map  and  in  this  work ;  contradictions  in  statistics 
and  in  the  statements  of  distances ;  may  possibly,  nay,  probably  will  be,  found.  T< 
deny  this,  would  be  presumption.  Such  exist,  more  or  less,  in  works  of  the  very  highes 
character.  From  persons  of  candor  and  discrimination,  however,  due  allowance  is 
expected.  When,  in  addition  to  the  compiling,  combining,  and  engraving  the  map,  11 
is  stated,  that  the  articles  in  the  Consulting  Index  alone  number  almost  ten  thousand 
that,  for  a  majority  of  these,  the  amount  of  the  population  was  extracted  from  an  ill 
arranged  and  inconvenient  document ;  arrd  the  distances  are  stated,  both  from  Wash 
ington  and  from  the  capital  of  each  State,  respectively ;  that  the  Index  of  Rivers 
amounts  to  near  a  thousand  articles,  for  every  one  of  which,  the  length,  of  course,  was 
ascertained ;  and,  when  to  the  above  we  add,  the  various  items  of  information  given  in 
the  General  View  of  the  United  States,  and  in  the  individual  States ;  it  is  evident,  that 
a  great  amount  of  labor  has  been  performed.  It  is  believed,  that  much  has1  been 
added  in  the  Map,  and  in  this  work,  and  combined  with  the  geography  of  the  country 
that  many  new  counties  and  towns  have  been  there  embodied ;  and  that  they  contain 
some  corrections  of  similar,  and  respectable  works. 

On  the  whole,  as  a  convenient  work  of  reference,  extended  in  its  detail  beyond  any 
thing  of  the  kind  heretofore  published,  and,  to  some  extent,  original ;  we  hope,  anc 
confidently  believe,  that  it  will  prove  both  useful  and  valuable  to  those  who  will  have 
occasion  to  consult  it. 

The  gentlemen  who  have  already  so  liberally  patronized  the  work,  will  perceive  that 
the  terms  of  the  prospectus  have  been  exceeded.  The  whole  of  the  vicinities  given  on 
the  Map,  are  additional ;  together  with  the  various  items  of  information,  in  the  General 
View  of  the  United  States,  and  in  the  individual  States,  and  the  numerous  travelling 
routes,  &c.  In  fact,  the  publisher  can  confidently  assert,  that  no  pains  have  been 
spared,  no  labor  abridged,  and  no  remuneration  withheld,  to  make  the  wht>le  worthy 
the  confidence  of  the  public. 


CONSULTING  INDEX. 

To  ascertain  the  position  of  any  Place  mentioned  in  the  Index,  observe  the  letters 
annexed  to  it  in  the  fifth  column :  then  find  the  corresponding  letters  on  the  top  or 
bottom  and  sides  of  the  Map ;  from  these  letters  pass  the  eye  along  the  ranges  due 
north  or  south  and  east  or  west,  until  they  intersect.  In  the  square  in  which  they 
meet,  the  place  sought  for  will  be  found.

The  first  column  of  the  Index  contains  the  names  of  places ; — the  second  column 
designates  the  class  to  which  they  belong ; — the  third  column  shows  the  counties  in 
which  towns,  &c.  are  situated; — the  fourth  column  points  out  the  States  in  which 
counties,  towns,  &,c.,  are  placed; — the  fifth  column  contains  the  reference  letters,  which 
correspond  with  the  letters  on  the  top  and  bottom  and  sides  of  the  Map ; — the  sixth 
column  contains  the  population  of  counties,  towns,  &c.,  according  to  the  census  of 
1830; — the  seventh  column  contains  the  distances  in  miles  of  townships  and  towns 
from  Washington  City ; — and  the  eighth  column  designates  the  distances  from  town- 
ships, towns,  &c.,  to  the  capitals  of  their  respective  States. 

The  single  letters  in  the  first  column,  attached  to  some  of  the  names,  signify  that 
those  places  are  represented  on  the  Map  by  the  letters  attached  to  them  :  this  occurs 
only  in  those  cases  where  the  space  on  the  Map  was  not  sufficient  to  admit  of  the 
name  being  written  at  length.  The  capital  letters  represent  townships,  and  the  small 
letters  stand  for  towns.

CONSULTING  INDEX  TO  TflE  RIVERS. 

To  ascertain  the  location  on  the  Map  of  any  river  mentioned  in  the  Index,  observe 
the  letters  opposite  to  it  in  the  column  of  reference  letters,  then  find  the  corresponding 
letters  on  the  top  and  sides  of  the  Map  ;  from  these  pass  the  eye  along  the  columns 
due  north  or  south,  or  east  or  west,  until  they  intersect:  in  the  square  of  their  intersec-

GENERAL  VIEW 

OP 

THE  UNITED  STATES. 


THE  United  States  of  America  are  situated  between  24°  20'  and  54 
40'  N.  Latitude,  and  Longitude  10°  E.  and  55°  40'  W.  from  Washington 
City.  This  vast  region  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  the  British  and  Rus- 
sian Possessions,  east  by  New  Brunswick  and  the  Atlantic  Ocean,  south 
by  the  Gulf  of  Mexico  and  the  Mexican  Territories,  and  west  by  the  Pa- 
cific Ocean.  It  has  an  outline  of  about  10,000  miles,  and  contains  with- 
in its  immense  perimeter  near  2,300,000  square  miles.  No  government 
in  the  world,  excepting  that  of  Russia,  exercises  territorial  jurisdiction 
over  so  large  an  extent  of  connected  country. 

Its  extreme  length,  from  the  Pacific  Ocean  to  Passamaquoddy  Bay,  is 
about  3,000  miles ;  and  its  greatest  breadth,  from  the  Lake  of  the  Wood 
to  the  southern  point  of  Florida,  is  estimated  to  be  1,700  miles.  The 
boundary  line,  between  the  United  States  and  Great  Britain,  commences 
at  Passamaquoddy  Bay,  and  extends  along  the  St.  Croix  river  to  the  Monu- 
rnent  at  its  source ;  thence  to  the  Highlands,  which  separate  the  waters  that 
fall  into  the  Atlantic  from  those  which  descend  to  the  St.  Lawrence  river  ; 
thence  along  those  Highlands,  in  a  south-western  direction,  to  the  parallel 
of  45°  N.  Latitude  ;  thence  along  that  parallel  to  the  river  St.  Lawrence  ; 
thence  up  that  river,  and  through  the  middle  of  the  great  lakes,  Ontario, 
Erie,  Huron,  and  Superior — proceeding  from  the  last  by  the  Grand  Portage 
and  Rainy  Lake  river  to  the  Lake  of  the  Woods  •  thence  it  proceeds,  on 
the  parallel  of  49°  N.  Latitude,  to  the  Rocky  Mountains :  the  boundary 
from  thence  to  the  Pacific  is  as  yet  undecided  as  regards  Great  Britain ; 
but  by  a  convention  between  the  United  States  and  Russia,  of  April  5th, 
1824,  the  title  of  the  former  power  to  the  country  west  of  the  mountains 
is  conceded,  and  the  boundary  line  between  the  territories  of  the  two 
nations  placed  at  54°  40'  N.  Latitude.  The  boundary  on  the  side  of  Mex- 
ico, as  ratified  by  a  treaty  with  Spain  in  1819,  begins  on  the  Gulf  of  Mex- 
ico, at  the  mouth  of  Sabine  river,  and  proceeds  along  the  west  bank  of 
that  river  to  Lat.  32°  N. ;  thence  by  a  line  due  north  to  Red  river  ;  thence 
up  that  river  to  the  meridian  of  100°  west  of  Greenwich,  or  23°  west  of 
Washington  City ;  then  along  that  meridian  to  the  Arkansas  river ;  thence 
up  the  south  bank  of  that  river  to  its  source ;  thence  due  north,  or  south, 
as  the  case  may  be,  to  the  parallel  of  Lat.  42°  N. ;  and  thence  on  that 
parallel  to  the  Pacific  Ocean. 

More  than  half  of  the  territory  included  within  these  limits  contains  few 
or  no  settlements,  and  is  not  formed  into  States.  This  immense  country 
has  every  variety  of  surface,  embracing  vast  ranges  of  mountains,  and 
extensive  plains  and  valleys. 


GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


The  United  States  are  intersected  by  two  principal  and  two  subordinate 
ranges  of  Mountains— -the  Rocky  and  AlleghaHy,  the  Ozark  and  Green 
mountains.  The  Rocky  Mountain  range,  taken  in  connexion  with  the 
Cordillera  of  Mexico,  of  which  they  form  a  part,  extend  from  the  Isthmus 
of  Darien  to  the  Arctic  Ocean,  a  distance  of  upwards  of  5,000  miles.  It 
forms  the  great  dividing  ridge  of  North  America,  separating  the  waters 
which  flow,  in  opposite  directions,  towards  the  great  oceans  which  bound 
the  opposite  sides  of  the  continent.  They  are  situated  at  a  medium  dis- 
tance of  about  600  miles  from  the  Pacific.  The  highest  of  these  moun- 
tains rise  above  the  line  of  perpetual  congelation,  being  estimated  at  about 
12,000  feet  in  height. 

The  Alleghany  range  runs  in  a  north-easterly  direction  from  the  north- 
ern part  of  Alabama  to  New  York,  stretching  along,  in  uniform  ridges,  at 
the  distance  of  from  250  to  80  miles  from  the  sea-coast,  and  following  its 
general  direction.  The  several  ridges  are  known  by  different  names,  as 
the  Blue  Ridge,  Cumberland  Mountain,  Jackson's  Mountain,  North  Moun- 
tain, Laurel  Mountain,  &c.  The  average  altitude  is  about  2,500  feet :  the 
Peaks  of  Otter  in  Virginia,  the  most  elevated  of  the  Blue  Ridge,  attain, 
however,  a  height  of  3,955  feet  above  the  Ocean.  This  range  occupies 
in  breadth  a  space  of  from  60  to  120  miles,  and  separates  the  waters 
which  run  into  the  Atlantic  Ocean,  from  those  which  flow  into  the  Missis- 
sippi and  its  tributaries. 

The  Green  Mountains  extend  from  Connecticut,  through  Massachusetts 
and  Vermont,  to  Canada,  dividing  the  Atlantic  rivers  from  those  of  Lake 
Champlain  and  the  St.  Lawrence.  Some  of  the  peaks  of  this  range  attain 
considerable  elevation :  Killington  and  Shrewsbury  peaks,  the  Camel's 
Rump,  and  Mansfield  Mountain,  are  the  most  •prominent,  and  are,  respec- 
tively, 3,924,  4,034,  4,188,  and  4,279  feet  in  altitude. 

In  New  Hampshire  and  Maine,  are  found  many  considerable  elevations, 
which  are  not  connected  with  any  systematic  range,  but  are  scattered  in 
detached  groups.  The  White  Mountains  in  New  Hampshire,  are' the  most 
considerable  ;  their  principal  peaks  being  the  highest  in  the  Union  east  of 
the  Rocky  Mountains.  'They  are  distinguished  by  the  names  of  Washing- 
ton, Franklin,  Adams,  Jefferson,  Madison,  Monroe,  and  Pleasant.  Mount 
Washington  is  6,428  feet  in  height.  They  are  covered  with  snow  ten 
months  in  the  year,  and  are  often  seen  from  a  great  distance  at  sea,  and  fre- 
quently before  any  intermediate  land,  although  they  are  at  least  65  miles  in 
the  nearest  direction  from  the  coast.  The  wild  and  sublime  character  of  their 
scenery,  causes  them  to  be  annually  visited  by  numerous  travellers.  The 
ascent  to  their  summits  is  attended  with  considerable  fatigue,  and  has  been 
surmounted  in  a  few  instances  by  ladies.  The  view  is  rendered  uncom- 
monly grand  and  picturesque,  by  the  magnitude  of  the  elevation,  the  extent 
and  variety  of  the  surrounding  scenery,  and  above  all,  by  the  huge  and 
desolate  piles  of  rocks  extending  to  a  great  distance  in  every  direction.  In 
the  western  pass  of  these  mountains,  there  is  a  remarkable  gap  called  the 
Notch,  which  is  esteemed  one  of  the  grandest  natural  curiosities  in  the 
United  States.  To  an  admirer  of  the  wonders  of  nature,  the  passage 
through  the  Notch,  and  the  views  from  the  summit,  afford  a  rich  repast. 
Though  inferior  to  the  Andes  or  the  Alps  in  elevation,  yet  they  display  the 
grandest  mountain  scenery,  surpassing  everything  of  the  kind  to  be  seen 
elsewhere  in  this  country.  Mt.  Katahdin,  or  Ktaadin,  near  the  centre  of 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  179 


the  State  of  Maine,  has  been  found  by  late  observation  to  be  5,335  feet  in 
height :  the  view  from  its  summit  is  fine  and  varied,  and  extends  over  80 
or  100  miles.  From  it  may  be  seen  63  lakes,  which  are  tributary  to  the 
Penobscot,  St.  John's,  Kennebeck,  and  other  rivers.  The  other  principal 
heights  in  Maine  are  Wassataquoik  Mountain,  5,245  feet,  Mt.  Abraham, 
Mt.  Bigelow,  Speckled  Mountain,  and  others.  They  are  all  about  4,000 
feet  in  elevation. 

The  Ozark  Mountains  extend  from  Texas,  through  the  western  part  of 
the  Territory  of  Arkansas,  into  the  lead-mine  region  of  Missouri.  Their 
general  direction  is  nearly  similar  to  that  of  the  Alleghany  range.  They 
give  rise  to  the  White,  St.  Francis,  Gasconade,  Osage,  and  other  rivers. 
Their  general  altitude  is  supposed  to  be  about  3,000  feet  above  the  sea. 
No  scientific  examination  of  them  has  as  yet  been  made.  They  are  like- 
wise denominated  the  Masserne  Mountains  by  some  writers,  from  Mount 
Cerne,  one  of  their  peaks. 

The  territory  of  the  United  States  is  washed  by  three  seas,  the  Atlantic 
Ocean  on  the  east,  the  Gulf  of  Mexico  on  the  south,  and  the  Pacific 
Ocean  on  the  west. 

The  principal  Bays  and  Sovnds  on  the  Atlantic  border  are,  Passama- 
quoddy  Bay,  which  lies  between  the  State  of  Maine  and  the  British  prov- 
ince of  New  Brunswick  ;  Massachusetts  Bay,  between  Cape  Ann  and  Cape 
Cod,  on  the  coast  of  Massachusetts ;  Long  Island  Sound,  between  Long 
Island  and  the  coast  of  Connecticut ;  Delaware  Bay,  between  Cape  May 
and  Cape  Henlopen,  which  separates  New  Jersey  from  Delaware  ;  Chesa- 
peake Bay,  which  communicates  with  the  Ocean  between  Cape  Charles 
and  Cape  Henry,  and  extends  in  a  northern  direction  for  200  miles  through 
the  States  of  Virginia  and  Maryland  ;  and  Albemarle  and  Pamlico  sounds, 
on  the  coast  of  North  Carolina. 

In  the  Gulf  of  Mexico,  the  principal  bays  are  Chatham  Bay,  near  the 
southern  extremity  of  the  Peninsula  of  Florida  ;  Appalachie  Bay,  into  which 
the  Ocklockny  and  St.  Mark's  rivers  discharge  their  waters ;  and  Mobile 
Bay,  in  Alabama. 

In  the  Pacific — the  Gulf  of  Georgia  is  the  most  important  inlet  on  the 
western  coast  of  the  United  States  :  it  separates  Quadra  and  Vancouver's 
Island  from  the  main  land,  and  is  about  120  miles  in  length  from  north  to 
south,  and  from  5  to  20  miles  in  width. 

The  Great  Lakes  form  an  important  feature  in  the  Geography  of  the 
Western  Continent.  These  mighty  inland  seas  have  no  parallel  in  any 
other  part  of  the  world.  The.  vast  assemblage  of  waters,  the  immense 
basin  in  which  they  are  embodied,  the  great  arteries  which  supply  them, 
and  the  rapid  increase  of  population  on  their  shores,  together  with  their 
relative  position  between  two  powerful  nations,  render  them  objects  of 
peculiar  interest.  They  present  a  continuous  water-course  of  upwards  of 
2,000  miles,  and  find  their  way  to  the  Ocean  by  the  river  and  bay  of  St. 
Lawrence.  The  rapid  advance  of  population  on  both  the  American  and 
British  sides,  has  caused  the  bosoms  of  these  remote  waters  to  be  whitened 
by  the  sails  of  commerce.  The  smoke  of  numerous  steam-vessels  is  seen 
ascending  amid  their  green  islands;  and  the  day  is  not  far  distant  when 
the  shores  of  most  of  them  will  count  hundreds  of  populous  towns,  the 
abode  of  an  intelligent  and  busy  population. 

Lake  Superior,  the  largest  body  of  fresh  water  known,  is,  in  common 


180  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


with  Huron  and  Michigan,  remarkable  for  its  great  depth,  and  the  peculiar 
transparency  of  its  waters — a  circumstance  noticed  from  the  earliest  perioc 
since  they  have  been  known  to  civilized  man.  They  are  as  much  affectec 
by  storms  as  the  Ocean,  the  waves  run  as  high,  and  are  equally  dangerou 
to  navigators.  They  all  abound  in  many  kinds  of  fine  fish,  of  which  the 
white  fish  is  the  most  valuable,  having  latterly  become  an  article  of  com- 
merce to  a  considerable  amount.  Lake  Superior  is  estimated  at  480  miles 
in  length,  190  in  the  widest  part,  and  about  1,700  in  circumference.  It 


900  feet  deep,  and  the  surface  of  its  waters  is  elevated  641  feet  above  the 
level  of  the  Ocean.  It  embosoms  a  considerable  number  of  islands,  of 
which  Isle  Royale,  Phillippeau,  and  Michippicotten,  are  the  principal.  It 
receives  many  rivers,  none  of  which,  however,  are  of  much  magnitude. 
The  shores,  particularly  on  the  northern  side,  are  walled  with  frowning 
and  lofty  precipices  of  granite  rock.  The  Pictured  Rocks,  on  the  south 
side,  so  called  from  their  picturesque  appearance,  are  a  remarkable  natural 
curiosity.  They  form  a  perpendicular  wall  extending  near  12  miles,  and 
are  300  feet  high,  presenting  a  great  variety  of  romantic  projections  and 
indentations.  The  waters  of  Lake  Superior  unite  with  those  of  Huron  by 
the  river  or  strait  of  St.  Mary,  about  30  miles  in  length,  with  a  fall  of  23 
feet  between  the  two  lakes,  which  prevents  communication,  except  in  small 
boats  and  canoes.  Lakes  Huron  and  Michigan  have  a  common  level  of 
618  feet  above  the  Atlantic,  and,  with  Lake  Superior,  exhibit  the  unique 
spectacle  of  vast  masses  of  water  elevated  more  than  600  feet  above  the 
Ocean,  while  the  bottom  of  their  beds  are  300  below  it. 

Lake  Huron  is  divided  into  two  portions  by  the  Manitouline  chain  of 
islands,  in  connexion  with  the  peninsula  of  Cabot's  Head.  The  eastern 
part  is  Lake  Manitouline,  containing  a  surface  of  about  7,500  square  miles. 
Huron  proper  is  265  miles  in  length,  and  from  60  to  70  in  width,  having 
a  superficies  of  about  20,000  square  miles. 

Lake  Michigan  is  wholly  within  the  territory  of  the  United  States,  and 
is  connected  with  Huron  by  the  Strait  of  Michillimackinac.  Mackinaw, 
an  island  in  this  strait,  is  a  place  of  considerable  trade,  has  a  custom- 
house, and  is  a  port  of  entry.  This  lake  is  about  320  miles  in  length,  and 
from  55  to  60  miles  wide,  with  an  area  of  16,200.  Many  rivers  flow  into 
it,  of  which  but  few  are  navigable  to  any  extent.  The  country  around  the 
head  of  this  lake  is  settling  rapidly  :  many  new  counties  have  been  organ- 
ized on  its  eastern  shores,  and  the  mildness  of  the  climate,  the  excellence 
of  the  soil,  and  the  probable  speedy  junction  of  its  waters  with  those  of  the 
Mississippi,  will  shortly  fill  this  portion  of  the  West  with  population  and 
wealth.  By  the  St.  Clair  river,  of  35  miles  course,  the  waters  of  Huron 
rapidly  descend  to  the  St.  Clair,  a  shallow  lake  of  about  90  miles  in  cir- 
cuit. Detroit  river  connects  lakes  St.  Clair  and  Erie.  This  lake  is  270 
miles  in  length,  and  from  30  to  60  wide  ;  its  depth  of  water  varying  from 
1  to  200  feet,  and  its  elevation  above  the  Ocean  565  feet,  with  an  area  of 
9,500  sq.  miles.  The  commerce  of  this  lake  is  already  estimated  at  about 
40,000  tons  annually,  and  is  rapidly  increasing.  Its  position  is  highly 
favorable  to  its  becoming  the  centre  of  a  vast  inland  navigation.  To  the 
already  completed  channels  of  commercial  connexion,  others  will  be  added 
that  will  eventually  swell,  its  trade  to  an  immense  amount. 

By  the  Niagara  river  the  whole  surplus  waters  of  the  upper  lakes  are 
precipitated  over  the  Falls  of  Niagara,  the  mightiest  cataract  in  the  world, 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  181 


and  one  of  the  most  sublime  and  magnificent  of  Nature's  works.  By  Goat 
Island,  the  water  is  divided  into  two  portions  :  the  greatest  mass  descends 
on  the  Canadian  side,  and  is  154  feet  in  perpendicular  depth  ;  on  the  Amer- 
ican side  of  the  river,  the  amount  of  water  is  much  less,  but  the  depth  is 
greater,  being  160  feet.  The  noise  of  these  falls  is  frequently  heard  50 
miles  distant,  and  the  cloud  of  vapor  thrown  up  is  often  seen  70  miles. 
The  descent  from  Lake  Erie  to  Ontario  is  329  feet.  The  river  is  in  length 
about  37  miles,  and  enters  Lake  Ontario  on  its  southern  shore,  near  its 
western  extremity.  This  lake  is  about  190  miles  in  length,  by  an  average 
width  of  40 :  it  is  in  circuit  600  miles,  500  feet  in  depth,  and  is  elevated 
above  tide- water  at  Albany  231.  Its  navigation  is  extensive,  and  rapidly 
increasing.  The  shores  are  generally  rather  low,  and  in  some  places 
marshy.  It  dlocnarges  its  surplus  waters  into  the  St.  Lawrence  river, 
which  is  broad,  and  rendered  unnavigable  in  its  upper  course  by  islands 
and  rapids.  In  consequence  of  this,  most  of  the  commerce  of  the  lake 
finds  its  way  to  New  York. 

The  remaining  lakes  of  any  magnitude  in  the  United  States  are  Cham- 
plain  in  New  York,  Winnipiseogee  in  New  Hampshire,  and  Moose  Head 
in  Maine. 

Lake  Champlain  separates  the  States  of  New  York  and  Vermont,  and 
is  in  extent  140  miles  nearly  north  and  south.  It  is  generally  narrow  and 
deep,  and  from  half  a  mile  to  12  miles  wide.  It  is  connected  with  the 
Hudson  river  by  the  Champlain  canal,  and  with  the  St.  Lawrence  river  by 
the  Sorelle,  or  Richelieu.  Large  arid  elegant  steam-boats  ply  daily  between 
Whitehall  and  St.  John's,  Lower  Canada,  which  touch  at  the  principal 
places,  and  numerous  travellers  are  constantly  passing  and  repassing  this 
route.  During  the  season  of  navigation,  the  lake  freezes  deep  for  several 
months,  and  is  usually  travelled  with  land  vehicles  from  December  to  March. 

Lake  Winnipiseogee  is  one  of  the  most  picturesque  sheets  of  water  in 
New  England.  It  is  very  irregular  in  form,  and  contains  a  number  of 
islands,  some  of  which  are  cultivated.  A  steam-boat  plies  between  the 
northern  and  southern  extremities,  in  connexion  with  a  line  of  stages  that 
run  from  Boston  to  Lancaster.  The  lake  is  about  22  miles  long,  and  from 
1  to  8  miles  wide. 

Moose  Head  Lake  is  situated  in  the  central  parts  of  Maine.  It  is  of  an 
irregular  form,  about  38  miles  in  length,  and  from  2  to  12  wide.  The 
country  in  its  vicinity  is  but  thinly  inhabited.  The  main  branch  of  Ken- 
nebeck  river  flows  from  it.  Around  it,  at  various  distances,  are  situated 
some  of  the  highest  mountains  in  Maine. 

The  Rivers  which  water  the  territory  of  the  United  States  are  numer- 
ous, and  some  of  them  among  the  most  important  in  the  world.  No  por- 
tion of  the  globe  possesses  greater  facilities  for  inland  navigation  and  trade, 
or  is  more  generally  intersected  with  large  and  navigable  streams.  They 
may  be  divided  into  four  great  classes :  1st.  The  streams  which  rise  on 
the  east  side  of  the  Alleghany  mountains,  and  flow  into  the  Atlantic 
Ocean  ;  2d.  Those  south  of  the  Alleghany  range,  which  discharge  them- 
selves into  the  Gulf  of  Mexico  ;  3d.  The  Mississippi  and  its  wide  tribu- 
taries, which  drain  the  waters  of  the  vast  valley  included  between  the 
Rocky  and  Alleghany  ranges  ;  and  4th.  The  rivers  which,  rising  on  the 
western  declivity  of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  direct  their  course  to  the  Pa- 
cific Ocean. 


182  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


The  Penobscot  is  the  largest  river  that  has  its  course  wholly  in  the  State 
of  Maine.  Its  western,  or  principal  branch,  rises  in  the  western  part  of 
the  State,  in  the  table-land  which  forms  part  of  the  boundary  between  the 
United  States  and  Canada.  It  flows  through  Chesuncook  and  Bamedump- 
kok  lakes,  and  unites  with  the  east  branch  about  50  miles  from  Bangor. 
It  joins  the  Penobscot  Bay  between  the  towns  of  Penobscot  and  Prospect. 
It  is  navigable  for  vessels  of  considerable  burden  to  Bangor,  where  naviga- 
tion and  the  tide  terminate.  Large  quantities  of  timber  are  exported  from 
the  sea-ports  on  the  river  and  bay.  The  course  of  this  river  is  near  300 
miles. 

Kennebeck  River  is,  next  to  the  Penobscot,  the  largest  in  Maine.  It  is 
the  outlet  of  Moose  Head  lake,  the  most  considerable  in  the  State.  The 
soil  on  its  banks  is  fertile,  and  well  adapted  to  agriculture  and  pasturage. 
It  is  navigable  for  vessels  of  150  tons  to  Hallowell,  40  miles  from  the  sea. 
Its  whole  course  is  about  230  miles. 

Connecticut  River,  the  most  important  stream  in  New  England,  rises  in 
the  highlands  separating  the  United  States  from  Canada.  In  its  course 
south  it  forms  the  boundary  between  the  States  of  New  Hampshire  and 
Vermont,  and  passing  through  Massachusetts  and  Connecticut,  flows  into 
Long  Island  Sound,  after  a  course  of  upwards  of  400  miles.  It  is  navi- 
gable to  Hartford  for  large  steam-boats,  and  vessels  of  8  feet  draught ;  also 
for  small  steam-boats  to  Wells  river,  in  Vermont,  more  than  200  miles 
above  Hartford.  The  head  waters  of  this  river  are  elevated  1,600  feet 
above  Long  Island  Sound.  Its  banks  present  to  the  eye  every  variety  of 
scenery ; — magnificent  mountains  and  hills,  delightful  valleys  and  meadows, 
unsurpassed  in  beauty  and  fertility,  and  many  of  the  most  beautiful  towns 
and  villages  in  New  England. 

The  Hudson  River  rises  west  of  Lake  Champlain  in  numerous  branches, 
and  pursuing  nearly  a  straight  southerly  course  of  about  320  miles,  unites 
with  the  Atlantic  below  the  city  of  New  York.  This  is  one  of  the  most 
important  rivers  in  the  United  States.  The  navigation  and  commerce  on 
its  waters  are  very  great,  and  annually  increasing.  By  means  of  the  Erie 
and  Champlain  canals,  it  is  connected  with  Lake  Erie  and  the  St.  Lawrence 
river.  It  is  navigable  for  ships  of  large  burden  to  Hudson  city,  and  for 
the  largest  steam-boats  to  Albany  and  Troy. 

Delaware  River  rises  in  New  York,  and  flowing  south,  separates  Penn- 
sylvania from  New  York  and  New  Jersey,  and  falls  into  Delaware  bay, 
after  a  course  of  about  310  miles,  below  New  Castle.  It  is  navigable  for 
vessels  of  the  greatest  burden  to  Philadelphia,  and  for  small  craft  to  the 
head  of  the  tide  at  Trenton,  above  which  city  it  is  navigable  100  miles  for 
boats  of  8  or  9  tons. 

Susquehannah  River,  one  of  the  largest  in  Pennsylvania,  is  formed  by 
its  north  and  west  branches,  which  unite  at  Northumberland.  It  thence 
flows  S.  and  SE.  into  the  head  of  Chesapeake  Bay,  in  Maryland.  It  is  l£ 
miles  wide  at  its  mouth,  but  is  navigable  only  about  5  miles  for  sloops. 
Canals  are  in  progress  for  the  improvement  of  its  navigation.  Its  north, 
or  longest  branch,  rises  in  Otsego  lake,  New  York,  from  whence  to  its 
mouth  is  about  460  miles. 

The  Potomac  River  rises  in  two  branches  in  the  Alleghany  Mountains, 
and  forms,  during  its  course  to  Chesapeake  Bay,  the  boundary  between 
Virginia  and  Maryland.  It  is  7$  miles  wide  at  its  mouth,  and  is  naviga- 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  183 


ble  for  vessels  of  large  burthen  to  Washington  city.  Its  junction  at  Har- 
per's Ferry  with  the  Shenandoah,  is  regarded  as  a  great  curiosity.  Its 
length  is  about  335  miles. 

James  River  is  formed  by  the  union  of  Jackson  and  Cowpasture  rivers, 
below  the  junction  of  which  it  is  first  known  as  James  river.  It  pursues 
a  course  of  upwards  of  400  miles,  and  unites  with  the  south  part  of  Ches- 
apeake Bay  at  Hampton  Roads.  It  is  navigable  for  sloops  to  Richmond, 
where  the  Great  Falls  formerly  presented  an  obstruction,  but  a  canal  has 
been  made  around  them,  and  the  river  is  now  navigable  for  batteaux  230 
miles  above  the  city. 

Savannah  River  is  formed  by  the  union  of  the  Tugeloo  and  Keowee 
rivers.  It  separates  South  Carolina  from  Georgia,  and  enters  the  Atlantic 
17  miles  below  Savannah,  to  which  city  it  is  navigable  for  vessels  of  large 
burden.  Steam-boats  ascend  the  river  to  Augusta,  above  which  place  are 
falls.  Beyond  these,  navigation  for  boats  extends  to  the  junction  of  Tage- 
loo  and  Keowee. 

Appalachicola,  which  discharges  itself  into  the  bay  of  the  same  name, 
is  formed  by  the  union  of  the  Chattahoochee  and  Flint  rivers,  the  former 
of  which  rises  in  the  north  part  of  Georgia,  and,  flowing  south,  receives 
Flint  river  at  the  south-west  extremity  of  Georgia.  This  river  is  naviga- 
ted to  Columbus  by  steam-boats.  From  Miller's  bend,  it  forms  the  bounda- 
ry between  Georgia  and  Alabama.  In  its  lower  course,  it  is  for  a  few 
miles  the  boundary  between  the  former  State  and  Florida.  On  its  head- 
waters are  numerous  gold-mines.  The  Appalachicola  and  Chattahoochee 
united,  are  about  425  miles  in  length. 

The  Mobile  River  is  formed  by  the  junction  of  the  Alabama  and  Tom- 
beckbee  rivers,  40  miles  above  Mobile.  After  a  course  of  a  few  miles,  it 
separates  into  two  branches,  the  western  of  which  retains  the  name  of  the 
Mobile,  and  the  eastern,  which  is  the  largest  and  deepest,  is  called  the 
Tensaw.  Both  flow  into  Mobile  bay,  between  Mobile  and  Blakely.  The 
head-waters  of  the  Alabama  rise  in  the  gold-region  of  Georgia,  not  far 
from  the  sources  of  the  Chattahoochee,  and  after  a  south-west  course  of 
near  500  miles,  form  a  junction  with  the  Tombeckbee.  Steam-boats  ascend 
to  Montgomery,  a  distance,  by  the  meanders  of  the  rivers,  of  near  300 
miles. 

The  Mississippi  is  the  largest  river  of  North  America,  and  ought  to  be 
considered  the  noblest  in  the  world — watering  a  more  fertile  region,  and 
having  a  larger  course  of  uninterrupted  navigation,  than  any  other  known 
stream.  Its  course — taken  in  connexion  with  its  mighty  auxiliary,  the 
Missouri — is  estimated  at  4,490  miles  in  length.  The  space  drained  by 
its  waters  is  supposed  to  exceed  1,300,000  square  miles,  being  upwards  of 
two-thirds  of  the  whole  territory  of  the  United  States,  or  about  one  twenty- 
eighth  part  of  the  terraqueous  surface  of  the  globe.  In  no  portion  of  the 
world  has  the  triumph  of  art  over  the  obstacles  of  nature  been  so  complete. 
The  introduction  of  steam -navigation  has  been  productive  of  immense  ad- 
vantages, and  has  been  carried  to  a  greater  extent  than  on  any  other  river. 
From  its  commencement  in  1811  to  the  present  time,  about  600  steam- 
vessels  have  been  built  and  navigated  on  these  waters.  The  present  num- 
ber is  about  300,  with  an  aggregate  of  50,000  tons.  The  boats  vary  in 
tonnage  from  75  or  80  to  540  tons.  Voyages  that  formerly  occupied  three 
months  in  ascending  the  stream,  are  now  performed  in  ten  days.  The 


184  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


Mississippi  proper  rises  west  of  Lake  Superior,  in  a  dreary  and  desolate 
region,  amidst  lakes  and  swamps,  and,  after  pursuing  a  south-east  course 
of  about  600  miles,  reaches  the  falls  of  St.  Anthony,  where  it  descend: 
perpendicularly  16  feet,  and  where  are  58  feet  of  rapids.  Thence  it  flow; 
a  south-easterly,  and  then  southerly  direction ;  and  after  forming  the  bound- 
ary between  Missouri,  Arkansas  Territory,  and  Louisiana,  on  the  west, 
and  Illinois,  Kentucky,  Tennessee,  and  Mississippi,  on  the  east,  discharge 
its  waters,  through  many  mouths,  into  the  Gulf  of  Mexico.  It  is  nearly 
3,000  miles  long,  and  is  navigable  for  steam-boats  to  the  falls  of  St.  An- 
thony. The  following  are  the  principal  tributaries  of  the  Mississippi  from 
the  west : 

The  St.  Peter's,  which  joins  it  at  Fort  Snelling,  about  10  miles  below 
the  falls  of  St.  Anthony,  is  a  stream  of  about  400  miles,  flowing  a  south- 
east course. 

The  Des  Moines,  a  river  of  about  400  miles  in  length,  enters  the  Mis- 
sissippi about  130  miles  above  the  Missouri. 

The  Missouri  enters  the  Mississippi  river  about  18  miles  above  St.  Louis, 
after  a  course  of  3,217  miles.  Although  it  loses  its  name  at  its  confluence 
with  the  latter,  it  is  much  the  longer  stream  of  the  two ;  but  the  Mississip- 
pi, having  been  first  discovered  and  explored,  has  retained  its  name  to  the 
Gulf  of  Mexico.  This  error  being  now  past  remedy,  the  Missouri  must 
be  considered  as  a  tributary  of  the  Mississippi.  It  is  formed  of  numerous 
branches,  which  rise  among  the  Rocky  Mountains,  between  the  parallels 
of  42°  and  48°  N.  Latitude.  The  most  remote  are  the  Jefferson,  Madison, 
and  Gallatin  rivers.  The  only  obstruction  that  occurs  to  its  navigation  is 
at  the  Great  Falls,  a  distance  of  2,575  miles  from  the  Mississippi.  Here 
the  river  descends  362  feet  in  18  miles  :  the  descent  is  by  four  great  pitches 
or  cataracts,  of  98,  19,  49,  and  26  feet,  respectively.  The  width  of  the 
river  is  about  350  yards,  and  the  cataracts  are  considered  to  be,  next  to 
those  of  Niagara,  the  grandest  in  the  world.  About  100  miles  above,  is 
the  place  called  the  Gates  of  the  Rocky  Mountains.  This  river  was  lately 
ascended  by  a  steam-vessel  300  miles  above  the  Yellow  Stone,  a  distance 
from  the  mouth  of  the  Mississippi  of  3,460  miles. 

The  largest  tributaries  of  the  Missouri  are,  the  Yellow  Stone,  of  1,100 
miles  in  length,  the  Platteor  Shallow  river,  of  1,600  miles  course,  and  the 
Kanzas,  of  1,200  miles  in  length.  They  all  rise  in  the  Rocky  Mountains, 
and  flow  through  a  flat  prairie  country,  inhabited  by  a  widely  scattered 
Indian  population. 

The  Arkansas  is,  after  the  Missouri,  the  most  considerable  tributary  of 
the  Mississippi  from  the  west.  It  rises  in  the  Rocky  Mountains,  in  the 
vicinity  of  the  sources  of  the  Rio  del  Norte,  Rio  Colorado  of  California, 
and  Lewis'  river.  Its  length  of  course  is  variously  estimated  at  from  2,000 
to  2,500  miles.  It  flows  in  a  SE.  direction,  and  forms,  for  a  considerable 
distance,  the  boundary  between  the  United  States  and  Mexico.  After  run- 
ning through  Arkansas  Territory  from  west  to  east,  it  enters  the  Mississip- 
pi river  about  540  miles  below  the  Missouri.  Steam-boats  can  generally 
ascend  this  river  to  the  mouth  of  the  Canadian,  its  largest  tributary,  and 
occasionally  to  Cantonment  Gibson,  situated  on  Grand  River,  two  miles 
from  its  junction  with  the  Arkansas,  and  640  from  the  Mississippi  river. 

The  Red  River  is  the  first  tributary  stream  of  any  note  which  enters 
the  Mississippi,  in  ascending  from  its  mouth.  It  has  a  course  of  about 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  185 


1,500  miles,  and  flows  through  immense  prairies  of  a  red  soil.  On  its 
banks  is  the  favorite  range  of  the  buffalo,  and  other  game  peculiar  to  the 
vast  western  ocean  of  prairies.  About  30  leagues  above  Natchitoches 
commences  the  Raft,  an  immense  accumulation  of  fallen  trees  and  drift- 
wood, which  blocks  up  the  river  for  a  distance  of  60  or  70  miles.  Exer- 
tions are  making,  by  the  General  Government,  for  the  removal  of  this 
obstruction,  which  is  considered  to  be  practicable ;  and,  when  completed, 
will  open  a  navigation  of  1,000  miles  into  the  interior.  The  country  above 
the  Raft  is  considered  to  be  uncommonly  favorable  for  settlement :  the  soil 
is  of  the  first  quality,  with  a  beautiful  intermixture  of  prairie  and  timber- 
land. 

The  principal  tributaries  of  the  Mississippi  which  flow  into  it  from  the 
eastward  are — 

Chippeway  River,  which,  after  a  course  of  more  than  200  miles,  enters 
the  Mississippi  at  the  lower  end  of  Lake  Pepin.  It  is  navigable  for  canoes 
150  miles.  On  the  Menomonie  branch  of  this  river,  about  45  miles  from 
the  Mississippi,  settlements  are  forming  on  a  tract  of  8  or  9  million  acres 
of  land  belonging  to  the  New  York  Mississippi  Land  Company.  A  town- 
ship of  6  miles  square  has  been  laid  out,  and  the  towns  of  Fairport  and 
Bloomingport  founded.  Much  of  the  land  in  the  vicinity  is  of  a  good  quali- 
ty, and  the  climate  salubrious. 

The  Ouisconsin  River  joins  the  Mississippi  about  4  or  5  miles  below 
the  town  of  Prairie  du  Chien.  In  part  of  its  course  it  approaches  so  near 
the  Fox  River  of  Green  Bay,  as  to  leave  a  portage  of  only  l£  miles.  It 
is  one  of  the  great  natural  channels  of  communication  between  the  lakes 
and  the  Mississippi.  Though  rapid  in  its  current,  it  is  unimpeded  by  dan- 
gerous cataracts  or  shoals. 

The  Illinois  River  enters  the  Mississippi  18  miles  above  the  Missouri, 
after  a  course  of -more  than  400  miles.  It  is  near  a  quarter  of  a  mile  wide 
at  its  mouth,  and  has  a  remarkably  smooth,  gentle  current.  It  is  ascended 
by  steam-boats  200  miles,  and  small  boats  have  frequently  passed,  especial- 
ly in  wet  seasons,  from  the  Des  Plaines,  one  of  its  branches,  to  the  Chica- 
go river,  and  thence  into  Lake  Michigan  !  A  canal  is  about  to  be  com- 
menced for  the  purpose  of  connecting  this  river  with  the  waters  of  Lake 
Michigan. 

The  Ohio  River  is  the  largest  eastern  tributary  of  the  Mississippi.  At 
its  junction,  and  for  100  miles  above,  it  is  as  large  as  the  parent  stream. 
This  river,  from  its  commencement,  affords  the  most  delightful  prospects. 
Tributaries  of  romantic  and  beautiful  character  come  in  almost  at  equal 
distances,  as  lateral  canals.  Its  bottoms  are  of  extraordinary  depth  and 
fertility.  It  is  diversified  with  100  considerable  islands,  many  of  them  of 
exquisite  beauty,  and  affording  the  most  lovely  situations  for  retired  farms. 
The  Ohio  is  formed  by  the  union  of  the  Alleghany  and  Monongahela  rivers 
at  Pittsburg.  It  flows  in  a  south-westerly  direction  for  945  miles,  separa- 
ting the  States  of  Ohio,  Indiana,  and  Illinois,  from  Virginia  and  Kentucky, 
and  falls  into  the  Mississippi  193  miles  below  the  Missouri.  Its  current  is 
gentle,  and  is  nowhere  broken  by  any  considerable  falls,  except  at  Louis- 
ville, in  Kentucky,  where  the  water  descends  22  £  feet  in  2  miles.  This 
obstruction  is  now  obviated  by  the  Louisville  and  Portland  canal,  which 
affords  a  passage  to  steam-boats  of  small  draft,  at  all  seasons,  to  the  upper 
parts  of  the  river  at  Pittsburg.  The  Ohio  is  600  yards  wide  at  Cincinnati,

and  below  the  Cumberland  it  averages  1,000  yards.  It  is  subject  to 
extreme  depressions  and  elevations :  the  average  range  between  high  and 
ow  water  is  about  50  feet — its  lowest  stage  is  in  September,  and  its  highest 
n  March. 

The  chief  tributaries  of  the  Ohio  are  the  Wabash,  a  fine  navigable 
river,  which  rises  in  the  north-east  part  of  Indiana,  a  short  distance  from 
the  Maumee,  with  which  it  will  shortly  be  united  by  a  canal.  During  the 
ast  half  of  its  course,  this  river  forms  the  boundary  between  the  States  of 
[ndiana  and  Illinois,  and  joins  the  Ohio  about  80  miles  above  the  Cumber- 
and.  It  is  in  length  about  450  miles. 

The  Cumberland  River  rises  in  the  mountains,  on  the  eastern  boundary 
of  Kentucky,  and  flowing  into  Tennessee,  makes  a  large  circular  bend, 
aasses  again  into  Kentucky,  and  joins  the  Ohio,  after  a  course  of  440  miles. 
At  high  water,  it  is  navigable  for  boats  almost  to  its  source,  and  for  steam- 
boats to  Nashville  at  all  seasons. 

Tennessee  River  is  formed  by  the  union  of  several  large  branches, 
which  rising  in  the  mountainous  country  in  western  Virginia  and  North 
Carolina,  unite  in  one  in  the  vicinity  of  Knoxville.  Thence  it  takes  a 
south-west  direction  into  Alabama ;  then  pursues  a  westerly  direction  for 
140  miles  ;  then,  turning  to  the  north,  crosses  again  the  State  of  Tennessee, 
and  part  of  Kentucky,  and  enters  the  Ohio  46  miles  above  the  Mississippi, 
and  12  below  the  Cumberland.  Its  entire  course  from  the  source  of  its 
longest  branch,  is  850  miles  distant  from  the  Ohio.  It  is  navigable  for 
steam-boats,  in  most  stages  of  the  water,  to  Florence,  at  the  foot  of  the 
Muscle  Shoals.  This  is  the  most  important  of  all  the  tributaries  of  the 
Ohio. 

The  Yazoo  is  the  most  southern  of  the  principal  eastern  tributaries  of 
the  Mississippi.  It  rises  in  the  north  part  of  the  State  of  Mississippi,  a 
short  distance  south  of  the  northern  boundary,  and  flovVing  a  south-west 
course  of  240  miles,  discharges  its  waters  into  the  Mississippi  about  20 
miles  above  the  Walnut  Hills.  Several  towns  have  been  lately  settled  on 
this  river,  of  which  Manchester  is  one  of  the  most  flourishing.  Steam- 
boats navigate  the  river  to  this  place. 

The  most  considerable  river  on  the  Pacific  side  of  the  Rocky  Mountains 
is  the  Columbia,  or  Oregon.  The  extremities  of  the  head-waters  of  this 
great  stream  extend  from  40°  to  53°  N.  Latitude.  Its  largest  branch  is 
Lewis'  river.  Its  head-waters  interlock  with  the  Arkansas,  Rio  del  Norte, 
and  others.  It  is  about  1,000  miles  in  length,  and  joins  the  main  river  413 
miles  from  the  sea,  making  the  whole  course  of  the  Columbia  upwards  of 
1,400  miles.  The  other  branches  are  Clark's  or  Flat  Head  river,  700  miles 
in  length,  McGillivray's,  Okinagan,  and  the  Wallamat  or  Multnomah. 
Fort  George  or  Astoria,  Fort  Vancouver,  and  others,  on  these  waters,  are 
trading  establishments  belonging  to  the  British  Hudson's  Bay  Company. 
Vessels  of  300  tons  may  ascend  the  Columbia  to  the  mouth  of  the  Walla- 
mat,  125  miles;  and  large  sloops  may  go  up  to  the  head  of  tide,  183  miles 
from  the  Ocean. 

The  Caledonia  River  flows  from  a  considerable  lake  of  the  same  name, 
which  is  situated  some  distance  west  of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  and  after  a 
southern  course  of  380  miles,  discharges  its  waters  into  the  Gulf  of  Georgia. 

Frazer's  River,  or  the  Tacoutche  Tesse,  is  composed  of  two  branches, 
which  unite  about  1 25  miles  from  the  sea.  Both  branches  rise  in  the  Rocky 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  187 


Mountain  range,  and  after  a  southern  course  of  540  miles,'  flow  into  Howe': 
Sound,  a  tributary  of  the  Gulf  of  Georgia.  On  its  head-waters  are  Fort 
Alexander,  and  several  other  trading  ports  of  the  Hudson's  Bay  Company 

SOIL  AND  PRODUCTIONS. 

The  Atlantic  region  of  the  United  States  contains  every  variety  of  soil, 
from  the  best  to  the  poorest.  In  the  eastern  States,  much  of  the  soil  is 
fertile,  but  a  great  proportion  of  it  is  rocky  and  of  difficult  cultivation,  and 
is  generally  better  adapted  to  grazing  than  tillage.  West  of  the  Allegheny 
Mountains,  in  the  valleys  of  the  Mississippi,  Missouri,  and  Ohio,  there  are 
vast  tracts  of  land  uncommonly  rich  and  fertile,  producing,  with  a  small 
amount  of  exertion,  after  the  first  labors  of  clearing  the  soil,  every  produc- 
tion that  can  add  to  the  comfort  and  enjoyment  of  man.  In  the  southern 
parts  of  the  country,  are  found  many  tracts  of  sandy  and  sterile  soil,  which 
are,  however,  interspersed  with  a  great  deal  of  rich  alluvial  land,  on  which 
are  raised  some  of  the  most  valuable  commodities  of  the  Union. 

The  productions  of  the  United  States  consist  of  almost  every  variety  in 
the  world.  Grain  of  all  kinds,  with  all  the  fruits  of  the  temperate,  and  many 
of  those  of  the  torrid  zone,  and  most  of  the  staple  commodities  of  trade 
and  commerce,  are  produced  in  great  abundance. 

In  a  region  so  widely  extended,  almost  every  variation  of  temperature 
experienced  by  man  is  felt.  In  the  northern  and  middle  States,  the  extremes 
of  heat  and  cold  are  great,  but  the  climate  is  healthy.  In  the  south-eastern 
and  southern  parts,  along  the  Atlantic  sea-board  and  the  Gulf  of  Mexico, 
the  climate,  during  some  of  the  summer  months,  is  occasionally  unhealthy  ; 
the  residue  of  the  year  is,  however,  mild,  pleasant,  and  salubrious.  In  the 
States  situated  west  of  the  Alleghany  Mountains,  the  climate  is  considered 
generally  more  temperate  than  on  the  same  parallels  of  latitude  eastward 
of  them. 

MINERALS. 

Minerals  abound  in  the  United  States  in  great  variety  and  profusion. 
Iron  is  very  generally  diffused,  and  is  very  abundant.  Lead,  limestone, 
and  coal  both  of  the  anthracite  and  bituminous  kind,  abound  in  quantities 
supposed  to  be  inexhaustible,  especially  of  the  former  description.  Gold 
has  recently  been  found  to  a  considerable  amount  in  Virginia,  North  and 
South  Carolina,  Georgia,  Alabama,  and  Tennessee.  The  most  valuable 
mines  are  in  North  Carolina  and  Georgia.  The  lead-mines  of  Missouri 
and  the  northern  parts  of  Illinois,  are  said  to  be  the  richest  in  quality  in 
the  world ;  and  the  quantity  of  that  metal  extracted  from  the  ore,  within 
the  last  few  years,  has  been  so  great  as  to  exclude  almost  entirely  the 
foreign  article  from  our  markets.  Salt  springs  abound  in  many  parts  of 
the  Union,  and  large  quantities  are  manufactured  in  New  York,  Western 
Pennsylvania,  Western  Virginia,  Ohio,  and  Illinois.  • 

INDIANS. 

The  whole  number  of  Aborigines  existing  at  present  within  the  territo- 
rial jurisdiction  of  the  United  States,  is  estimated  at  about  313,000,  of 
whom  about  100,000  reside  west  of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  and  the  residue 
east  of  that  region.  The  most  humane  exertions  have  constantly  been  in 
operation,  on  the  part  of  the  General  Government,  to  preserve  the  race 
from  extinction,  by  severe  provisions  to  prevent  their  obtaining  ardent 
spirits,  and  by  unwearied  efforts  to  train  them  to  the  arts  and  agriculture, 


188  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


ind  to  impart  to 'them  the  blessings  of  education  and  Christianity.  Under 
he  system  adopted  by  the  Government,  140  agents  and  sub-agents,  inter- 
>relers  and  mechanics,  are  employed,  among  the  different  Indian  tribes,  to 
;arry  these  purposes  into  effect;  and  the  President  is  authorized  to  cause 
he  stores  of  the  licensed  traders  to  be  searched,  and  if  ardent  spirits  are 
bund  among  the  articles  for  sale,  the  whole  goods  are  forfeited  to  the 
overnment. 

The  whole  number  of  Indian  schools  established  among  them,  partly  by 
charitable  associations  of  the  different  religious  denominations,  and  partly 
by  pecuniary  aid  from  the  Government,  is  53.  The  sum  of  $10,000  is 
annually  bestowed  by  the  Government  for  the  maintenance  of  these  schools. 
The  whole  number  of  Indian  children  receiving  instruction  in  1833  was 
1,835,  exclusive  of  113  scholars  at  the  Choctaw  academy  in  Kentucky, 
he  expense  of  whose  education  is  derived  from  funds  set  apart  by  the 
tndians  themselves,  under  treaty  stipulations  for  this  specific  object. 

AGRICULTURE. 

Nearly  one-fifth  of  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  United  States  are  engaged 
n  agricultural  pursuits.  The  annual  cotton  crop  is  estimated  at  from  300 
to  350  millions  of  pounds.  The  flour  and  meal  actually  inspected  at  eleven 
different  places  in  1830,  amounted  to  3,117,125  barrels  of  wheat  flour, 
37,399  of  rye  flour,  17,337  hogsheads  and  56,496  barrels  of  corn  meal. 
The  eastern  States  are  mostly  devoted  to  grazing  and  the  dairy,  the  middle 
and  western  to  the  production  of  various  kinds  of  grain,  the  southern  to 
raising  rice,  sugar,  tobacco,  cotton,  &c. 

MANUFACTURES. 

The  manufactures  of  the  United  States  are  considerable,  and  gradually 
increasing.  The  eastern  and  middle  States,  which  are  most  abundantly 
supplied  with  water-power,  are  most  extensively  engaged  in  manufactures, 
especially  of  cotton,  woollen,  iron,  glass,  paper,  wood,  &c.  In  1810,  the 
value  of  manufactures  in  the  United  States  was  estimated  at  $172,762,676. 
The  present  annual  value  is  computed  at  $500,000,000 ;  and  the  capital 
invested  in  all  the  manufactories  of  the  Union  is  estimated  at  more  than 
$1000  millions.  Most  of  the  American  manufactures  are  designed  for 
home  consumption  ;  yet,  in  1831  domestic  manufactures  were  exported  to 
the  amount  of  $7,147,364. 

COMMERCE. 

The  commerce  of  the  United  States  is,  next  to  that  of  Great  Britain,  the 
largest  in  the  world.  It  consists  principally  in  the  exchange  of  agricultural 
produce,  for  the  manufactures  of  other  countries,  and  the  productions  of 
tropical  climates.  On  the  31st  of  December,  1832,  the  tonnage  employed 
in  the  foreign  trade  of  the  United  States  amounted  to  1 ,384,386  tons,  of 
which  972,282  tons  were  American,  being  an  increase  over  that  of  the 
preceding  year  of  179,486  tons.  The  value  of  the  exports  of  the  year 
1833,  ending  on  the  30th  of  September,  is  estimated  at  $90,663,403,  of 
which  $70,642,030  were  of  domestic,  and  $20,021,373  of  foreign  articles  ; 
showing  an  increase  in  the  exports  of  domestic  produce  of  $7,504,560  over 
the  exports  of  the  same  character  for  the  year  ending  30th  September, 
1832,  and  a  diminution  in  foreign  articles  of  $4,018,100.  The  value  of 
the  imports  for  the  year  1833  is  estimated  at  $109,000,000,  being  an 
increase  over  the  imports  of  the  previous  year  of  $8,000,000,  of  which 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  189 


$34,000,000  were  in  articles  free  from  duty.  The  most  important  article 
of  export  is  cotton,  of  which  there  were  sent  to  Europe  in  1830,  838,716 
bales,  valued  at  $25,289,492.  Of  flour,  there  were  exported,  in  1831, 
1,805,205  barrels;  of  rye  flour,  19,049  barrels;  of  corn  meal  in  barrels, 
204,206  ;  of  wheat,  405,384  bushels  ;  and  of  corn,  566,761  bushels.  The 
other  principal  staples  of  commerce  are  rice,  tobacco,  lumber,  pot  and  pear 
ashes,  &c.  The  whole  amount  of  the  registered,  enrolled,  and  licensee 
tonnage,  including  fishing  vessels,  in  the  United  States,  in  1830,  was 
1,191,776  tons,  of  which  38,911  were  engaged  in  the  whale-fishery;  and 
the  amount  of  tonnage  built  was  upwards  of  58,000  tons.  The  number 
of  seamen  in  the  United  States  is  supposed  to  be  about  50,000,  exclusive 
of  the  Navy,  and  those  engaged  -in  internal  navigation.  The  greatest 
export  trade  is  from  New  Orleans,  and  the  greatest  import  into  New  York. 
A  great  proportion  of  the  shipping  of  the  United  States  is  owned  in  New 
England  and  New  York. 

FISHERIES. 

Most  of  the  fisheries  are  carried  on  from  the  New  England  States,  and 
in  New  England  ships.  The  cod-fishery  is  the  most  important,  that  of  the 
whale  next.  The  annual  value  of  fish  exported  is  $1,889,472.  The  whole 
amount  of  tonnage  engaged  in  the  fisheries,  in  1831,  was  98,322  tons. 

REVENUE  AND  EXPENDITURE. 

As  there  is  at  present  no  direct  taxation  by  the  General  Government,  the 
revenue  is  chiefly  derived  from  duties  on  imports,  the  sales  of  public  lands, 
bank-stock,  post-offices,  lead-mines,  &c.  The  revenue  on  imports  is  by 
far  the  largest. 

The  receipts  into  the  national  treasury  for  the  first  three  quarters  of  the 
year  1833,  are  estimated  at  $24,355,317  95  cts.,  derived  from  the  following 
sources,  viz  :  customs,  $21,256,089  77  cts. ;  public  lands,  $2,219,957  35 
cts. ;  dividends  on  bank-stock,  $474,985  00  ;  sales  of  United  States'  bank- 
stock,  $91,000  00  ;  third  instalment  under  the  convention  with  Denmark, 
$221,315  17  cts. ;  incidental  receipts,  $91,970  66  cts.  The  receipts  of 
the  fourth  quarter  are  estimated  at  $7,675,000,  making  the  total  estimated 
receipts  $32,030,317  95  cts.  The  expenditures  for  the  first  three  quarters 
of  the  same  year  are  estimated  at  $18,248,388  15  cts.,  viz:  civil  list, 
foreign  intercourse,  &c.,  $4,951,462  84  cts. ;  military  service,  including 
fortifications,  ordnance,  Indian  affairs,  pensions,  arming  the  militia,  and 
internal  improvements,  $9,950,349  29  cts. ;  naval  service,  including  the 
gradual  improvement  of  the  navy,  $3,076,051.  39  cts. ;  and  public  debt, 
$270,524  63  cts.  The  expenditures  for  the  fourth  quarter,  including 
$2,301,716  36  cts.  on  account  of  the  public  debt,  are  estimated,  on  data 
furnished  by  the  respective  departments,  at  $6,409,916  45  cts.,  making 
the  total  estimated  expenditures  for  the  .year  1833,  $24,383,790  90  cts. 
The  public  debt,  on  the  1st  January,  1834,  amounted  to  $4,722,260  29  cts., 
and  will  be  finally  liquidated  during  the  present  year.  The  receipts  for  the 
present  year,  (1834,)  from  all  sources,  are  estimated  by  the  Secretary  of 
thfe  Treasury  at  185  millions  of  dollars,  viz :  customs,  15  millions;  public 
lands,  3  millions ;  bank  dividends  and  miscellaneous  receipts,  ^  million ; 
balance  in  the  treasury  January  1st,  1834,  $7,983,790  90  cts. — making 
all  together  an  estimated  revenue  for  the  year,  of  $26,483,790  90  cts.  The 
expenditures  for  the  same  year  are  estimated  at  $23,501,994  85  cts.,  includ-

the  national  debt. 

PUBLIC  DEBT. 

The  debt  of  the  United  States  consists  of  sums  borrowed  during  the 
revolutionary  war,  and  at  various  subsequent  periods.  The  debt  due  by 
the  Government  at  the  close  of  the  war  in  1783,  was  842,000,375 — but 
no  proper  provision  being  made  for  the  payment  of  the  interest,  and  the 
public  revenue  often  falling  short  of  the  expenditure,  the  debt  continued  to 
increase,  and  in  1790  it  amounted  to  879,124,464.  Various  measures 
were  taken  for  its  liquidation,  but  with  little  effect,  till  1805.  From  that 
period,  a  gradual  reduction  took  place,  till  it  was  stopped  by  the  war  with 
Great  Britain  in  1812.  In  1812,  the  amount  of  the  public  debt  was 
845,035,123 ;  but,  in  consequence  of  the  loans  made  during  the  war,  it 
amounted  in  1816  to  8123,016,375.  Since  that  period,  such  progress  has 
been  made  in  its  redemption,  that  on  the  1st  of  January,  1834,  it  was 
reduced  to  84,722,260  29  cts.,  and  will  be  finally  paid  off  during  the 
present  year.

ARMY. 

A  standing  army  is  necessarily  an  object  of  jealousy  in  a  republican 
State ;  and  as  the  United  States  has  no  formidable  enemy  in  its  vicinity 
and  the  people,  at  the  same  time,  being  extremely  studious  of  economy  in 
all  branches  of  the  Government,  their  military  force  has  always  been  kep 
on  a  low  scale.  By  an  act  of  Congress  of  1815,  the  strength  of  the  regular 
army  was  fixed  at  9,980  men.  In  1821,  it  was  reduced  to  6,442,  and  on 
the  23d  November,  1833,  it  amounted  (all  grades  included)  to  6,412  men 
The  army  of  the  United  States,  in  its  equipment  and  discipline,  is  consider 
ed  to  be  very  effective.  Its  organization  is  as  follows  :  General  Staff,  Medi 
cal  Staff,  Pay  Department,  Purchasing  Department,  Corps  of  Engineers 
Topographical  Engineers,  and  Ordnance  Department,  303 ;  1  regiment  ol 
dragoons,  393  ;  4  regiments  of  artillery,  1,788  ;  7  regiments  of  infantry 
3,255  ;  recruits  and  unattached  soldiers,  673  :  total,  6,412.  Of  the  above 
2,685  are  distributed  in  29  forts  and  garrisons,  in  the  eastern  military 
district,  under  the  command  of  Brevet  Major  General  Scott ;  and  2,776 
distributed  in  17  forts  and  garrisons,  in  the  western  military  district,  unde 
the  command  of  Brevet  Major.  General  Gaines.  The  eastern  militar 
district  comprises  all  east  of  a  line  drawn  from  the  north-western  extremit) 
of  Lake  Superior  to  the  southernmost  point  of  Florida,  including  For 
Winnebago,  and  the  western  district  all  west  of  such  line,  including  tb 
whole  of  Kentucky  and  Tennessee.  The  militia,  which  constitutes  ftie 
principal  military  force  of  the  United  States,  consists  of  all  the  male 
between  the  ages  of  18  and  45,  and,  according  to  returns  made  since  1832 
amounts  to  1,316,615  men.  When  the  militia  are  called  into  the  field 
they  have  the  same  pay  and  allowances  as  the  regular  army,  but  are  boun

only  to  serve  6  months.  The  expenditures  for  the  military  service  for  the 
year  1833,  including  fortifications,  ordnance,  Indian  affairs,  pensions,  arm- 
ing  militia,  and  internal  improvements,  was  $9,950,349  29cts.,  and  the 
estimate  of  the  same  for  the  year  1834,  is  $8,654,942  25  cts.  The 
military  affairs  of  the  United  States  are  under  the  superintendence  of  the 
Secretary  of  War.  The  War  Department  was  created  by  act  of  Congress 
of  August  7th,  1789,  and  for  several  years  the  control  of  both  the  land 
and  sea  service  was  vested  in  its  presiding  officer.  On  the  30th  of  April, 
1798,  however,  a  separation  took  place,  and  a  Navy  Department  was 
established.  The  War  Department  has  the  superintendence  of  the  erection 
of  fortifications,  of  making  topographical  surveys,  of  surveying  and  leasing 
the  national  lead-mines,  and  of  the  intercourse  with  Indian  tribes ;  also, 
everything  connected  with  the  organization,  equipment,  subsistence,  and 
pay  of  the  army,  pensions,  bounty  lands,  arming  the  militia,  &c.  &c.  The 
Secretary  of  War  is  by  usage  a  member  of  the  cabinet,  and  holds  his  office 
at  the  will  of  the  President. 

NAVY. 

The  navy  of  the  United  States,  though  small  in  point  of  numbers,  is 
perhaps  the  best  organized,  and  the  most  effective  in  the  world.  The 
unexpected  and  astonishing  success  of  their  frigates,  in  combats  with  British 
vessels  of  the  same  class,  during  the  late  war,  established  at  once  the  repu- 
tation of  the  American  navy  for  skill  and  prowess  in  the  eyes  of  Europe  ; 
and  the  United  States,  with  a  very  few  ships,  already  rank  high  as  a  naval 
power.  From  1816  to  1821,  one  million  of  dollars  was  expended  annually 
in  building  vessels  of  war — since  1821,  the  sum  appropriated  has  been 
reduced  one  half.  On  the  30th  November,  1833,  the  amount  of  the  Amer- 
ican navy  was  as  follows:  39  vessels  afloat,  and  12  on  the  stocks.  Of 
the  vessels  afloat,  21  were  in  commission,  and  18  in  ordinary;  of  those 
afloat,  7  are  of  the  line,  9  frigates,  15  sloops  of  war,  7  schooners,  and  1 
galliot.  Those  on  the  stocks  consist  of  5  ships  of  the  line  and  7  frigates. 
The  expenditure  for  the  naval  service  in  1833,  including  the  gradual 
increase  of  the  navy,  amounted  to  $3,076,051  39  cts.,  and  the  estimated 
expense  of  the  same  for  1834,  is  $4,051,073  19  cts.  The  number  of 
persons  of  all  grades  required  for  the  naval  service  of  the  United  States 
for  1834,  is  estimated  at  5,993.  For  the  construction  and  repair  of  vessels 
belonging  to  the  navy,  there  are  navy- yards  established  at  the  following 
places,  viz  :  Portsmouth,  N.  H.,  Charlestown,  Mass.,  New  York,  Philadel- 
phia, Washington  City,  Gosport,  near  Norfolk,  Va.,  and  at  Pensacola,  F.  T. 
At  all  these  yards,  with  the  exception  of  that  at  Pensacola,  there  are  ves- 
sels on  the  stocks,  most  of  which  are  in  a  state  of  great  forwardness,  and 
could  be  launched  at  a  short  notice.  Two  dry  docks,  of  sufficient  capacity 
for  the  largest  vessels,  have  lately  been  completed,  one  at  Gosport,  Va., 
and  the  other  at  Charlestown,  Mass.  They  are  constructed  of  hewn  granite, 
of  unrivalled  masonry.  The  latter  is  341  feet  in  length,  80  in  width,  and 
30  in  depth,  and  cost  $652,482.  The  Constitution  was  floated  into  that  at 
Charlestown  on  the  24th  June,  1833,  and  the  North  Carolina  74  into  that 
at  Gosport  on  the  27th  August  following.  The  dock  at  Gosport  cost 
$872,220.  There  are,  also,  at  the  different  navy-yards,  materials  collect- 
ed for  the  construction  of  4  ships  of  the  line,  7  frigates,  and  4  sloops 
of  war. 

The  general  superintendence  of  the  naval  affairs  of  the  United  States  is 


192  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


confided  to  the  Secretary  of  the  Navy.  This  branch  of  the  public  business 
was,  previous  to  the  30th  April,  1798,  under  the  direction  of  the  Secretary 
of  War.  By  an  act  of  Congress  of  that  date,  the  office  of  Secretary  of 
the  Navy  was  created.  A  Board  of  Navy  Commissioners  was  instituted 
by  act  of  February  7th,  1815,  to  aid  him  in  the  discharge  of  his  duties. 
It  consists  of  three  officers  of  the  navy,  in  rank  not  below  that  of  a  Post 
Captain.  They  discharge  all  the  duties  relative  to  the  procurement  of 
naval  stores  and  materials,  and  the  construction,  armament,  equipment, 
and  employment  of  vessels  of  war,  as  well  as  other  matters  connected 
with  the  naval  establishment  of  the  United  States.  They  appoint  their  own 
Secretary,  and  their  records  are,  at  all  times,  subject  to  the  inspection  of 
the  President  of  the  United  States,  and  the  Secretary  of  the  Navy. 

The  Secretary  of  the  Navy  is,  by  usage,  a  member  of  the  cabinet,  and 
holds  his  office  at  the  will  of  the  President. 

GOVERNMENT. 

The  United  States  form  a  federal  republic.  Each  of  the  States  is  inde- 
pendent, and  has  the  exclusive  control  of  all  concerns  merely  local ;  but 
the  defence  of  the  country,  the  regulation  of  commerce,  and  all  the  general 
concerns  of  the  confederacy,  are  committed,  by  the  Constitution,  to  a  Gene- 
ral Government. 

The  legislative  power  is  vested  in  a  Congress,  consisting  of  a  Senate 
and  House  of  Representatives.  The  Senate  is  composed  of  2  members 
from  each  State,  chosen  every  two  years,  for  a  period  of  six  years,  so  that 
one-third  of  the  Senate  is  renewed  biennially.  The  number  of  Senators 
is  at  present  48.  The  members  of  the  House  of  Representatives  are  chosen 
every  two  years,  each  State  being  entitled  to  a  number  proportionate  to  its 
population,  in  a  ratio,  in  the  States  which  do  not  admit  of  slavery,  of  one 
to  every  47,700  inhabitants  ;  and  in  the  States  where  there  are  slaves,  of 
one  for  every  47,700  of  the  free  white  population,  and  one  for  every  79,500 
of  the  slaves.  The  number  of  Representatives  are  now  240. 

The  judiciary  is  composed  of  a  Supreme  Court,  of  one  chief  and  six 
associate  judges  ;  of  31  District  Courts,  of  one  judge  each,  except  that  six 
of  the  States  are  divided  into  two  districts  each ;  and  of  7  Circuit  Courts, 
composed  of  the  judge  of  the  district,  and  one  of  the  judges  of  the  Supreme 
Court. 

The  executive  power  is  vested  in  a  President,  who,  together  with  the 
Vice-President,  is  chosen  for  four  years,  by  electors  from  all  the  States. 
The  principal  subordinate  officers  of  the  executive  department  are  the 
Secretaries  of  State,  of  the  Treasury,  of  War,  and  of  the  Navy,  the  Post- 
master General,  and  the  Attorney  General.  The  President  must  be  a 
native-born  citizen,  or  have  been  a  citizen  at  the  adoption  of  the  Constitu- 
tion, of  35  years  of  age,  and  have  resided  in  the  United  States  14  years. 
The  present  Constitution  of  the  United  States  was  adopted  in  1789,  and 
has  since  been  amended.  It  secures  to  the  people  the  grand  principles  of 
freedom,  liberty  of  conscience  in  matters  of  religion,  liberty  of  the  press, 
trial  by  jury,  and  the  right  of  choosing  and  being  chosen  to  office. 

STATE  GOVERNMENTS. 

To  the  State  Governments  is  committed  that  branch  of  legislation  which 
relates  to  the  regulation  of  local  concerns.  These  bodies  make  and  alter 
the  laws  which  regard  property  and  private  rights,  appoint  judges  and  civil 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  193 


officers,  impose  taxes  for  State  purposes,  and  exercise  all  other  rights  am 
powers  not  vested  in  the  Federal  Government  by  positive  enactment.  They 
are,  in  their  composition,  very  similar  to  the  Federal  Government.  The 
legislature  consists  always  of  two  branches,  both  of  which  are  returned  by 
the  same  electors ;  and  these  electors  may  be  said  to  comprise  the  whoL 
adult  white  population,  the  usual  qualifications  being  citizenship,  with  one 
or  two  years'  residence,  and  payment  of  taxes.  The  only  exceptions  are 
the  following :  in  Vermont,  the  legislature  consists  of  a  House  of  Repre 
sentatives  only  ;  in  North  Carolina,  representatives  are  chosen  by  the  whole 
resident  free  citizens  who  pay  taxes,  but  senators  only  by  freeholders  ;  in 
New  Jersey  and  Virginia,  the  right  of  suffrage  for  both  houses  is  limited  to 
persons  holding  a  small  amount  of  landed  property ;  in  Maryland,  the 
senators  are  chosen  by  delegates  named  for  the  purpose  by  the  people. 

In  all  the  States,  the  period  for  which  the  representatives  serve  is  either 
one  or  two  years.  The  elections  are  biennial  in  Delaware,  South  Carolina 
Tennessee,  Louisiana,  Illinois,  and  Missouri,  and  annual  in  the  other  18 
States. 

The  shortest  period  for  which  the  senators  serve,  in  any  State,  is  one 
year,  and  the  longest  five.  In  Maine,  New  Hampshire,  Massachusetts 
Rhode  Island,  Connecticut,  New  Jersey,  North  Carolina,  and  Georgia,  the 
senators  hold  their  office  for  one  year  only ;  in  Ohio  and  Tennessee,  for 
two  years ;  in  Mississippi,  Alabama,  and  Indiana,  for  three  years ;  in  New 
I  York,  Pennsylvania,  Delaware,  Virginia,  South  Carolina,  Kentucky,  Louis- 
iana, Illinois,  and  Missouri,  for  four  years ;  and  in  Maryland,  for  five  years. 
Except  in  Maryland,  when  the  Senate  of  any  State  serves  for  more  than 
one  year,  it  is  renewed  by  parts  or  divisions,  one-third  of  the  members 
going  out  annually  when  they  serve  for  three  years,  and  one-fourth  when 
they  serve  for  four.  In  some  cases,  however,  when  the  senators  serve  for 
four  years,  the  renewal  is  by  halves  every  two  years. 

EDUCATION. 

The  United  States  are  more  distinguished  for  the  general  diffusion  of 
knowledge,  than  for  eminence  in  literature  or  science.  The  means  of  com- 
mon education  are  widely  extended,  and  there  are  numerous  seminaries  of 
learning  throughout  the  country,  though  there  are  no  literary  establishments 
on  so  large  a  scale  as  many  in  Europe.  As  a  General  Government,  the 
United  States  have  done  but  little  for  the  interests  of  public  instruction, 
except  that  they  reserve  for  this  purpose  one  section  in  every  township  of 
their  new  lands,  besides  other  reservations  for  colleges.  This  highly 
important  subject  has,  perhaps,  been  better  attended  to,  by  being  left  to  the 
individual  States  and  to  private  citizens.  The  first  settlers  of  New  England 
paid  a  very  laudable  attention  to  this  important  subject.  As  early  as  1628, 
a  law  was  passed  for  the  instruction  of  every  child  in  the  colonies ;  and  in 
1647,  a  school  was  established  by  law  in  every  town  or  neighborhood  of 
50  families,  and  a  school  for  the  higher  branches,  for  every  100  families. 

There  are  in  the  United  States  66  colleges,  the  number  of  whose  alumni, 
previous  to  1831,  was  22,653,  of  which  about  one-fourth  were  graduates 
of  Harvard  university,  and  nearly  the  same  number  of  Yale  college.  The 
whole  number  of  instructors,  at  the  same  time,  was  about  450  :  volumes 
in  college  libraries,  190,056,  and  in  the  students'  library  societies,  87,190. 

Thirty-nine  of  the  colleges  have  risen  during  the  present  century,  though 


194  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


many  of  the  foundations  now  entitled  colleges  were  respectable  academies 
before  the  change  of  their  names,  with  which  change,  in  some  cases,  there 
has  been  no  corresponding  change  of  studies.  From  the  latest  informa- 
tion, it  appears  there  were,  exclusive  of  the  West  Point  military  academy, 
about  6,000  young  men  in  the  Union  receiving  a  classical  education. 
Besides  the  colleges,  there  are  27  theological  seminaries,  the  number  of 
whose  graduates  amount  to  nearly  1,900.  There  are,  also,  5  Roman 
Catholic  seminaries,  besides  18  medical,  and  9  law  schools. 

Most  of  the  States  of  the  Union  have  made  some  legislative  provision 
for  common  school  instruction,  and  in  some  States,  (especially  in  Massa- 
chusetts, Connecticut,.  New  York,  and  Virginia,)  large  funds  are  set  apart 
for  this  purpose.  Private  schools  and  academies  of  the  higher  order  are 
quite  numerous,  especially  in  New  England ;  so  that  few  grow  up  without 
enjoying  the  means  of  elementary  instruction,  or,  if  they  desire  it,  of  a 
more  extended  liberal  education.  In  the  Sabbath-schools  of  the  United 
States,  which  are  doing  much  for  the  intellectual  as  well  as  moral  improve- 
ment of  the  young,  about  600,000  children  are  weekly  instructed  by  more 
than  80,000  teachers. 

RELIGION. 

There  is  no  established  church  in  the  United  States,  religion  being  left 
to  the  voluntary  choice  of  the  people.  No  sect  is  favored  by  the  laws 
beyond  another ;  it  being  an  essential  principle  in  the  national  and  State 
Governments,  that  legislation  may  of  right  interfere  in  the  concerns  of 
public  worship  only  so  far  as  to  protect  every  individual  in  the  unmolested 
exercise  of  that  of  his  choice.  Nor  is  any  legislative  provision  made  for 
the  support  of  religion,  except  that,  in  Massachusetts,  the  legislature  is 
enjoined  to  require,  and  in  New  Hampshire  is  empowered  to  authorize,  the 
several  towns  and  parishes  to  make  adequate  provision,  at  their  own 
expense,  for  the  support  of  Protestant  ministers.  The  same  was  the  case 
in  Connecticut,  until  1818,  when  it  was  abolished  by  the  new  constitution. 
But  in  all  the  other  twenty-two  States,  the  support  of  religion  is  left  entirely 
to  the  voluntary  zeal  of  its  professors.  The  result  has  shown  that  Chris- 
tianity has  a  firm  hold  in  the  nature  of  man,  and  is  rather  injured  than 
served  by  those  costly  establishments,  which  so  often  abridge  free  inquiry 
and  liberty  of  conscience,  engender  fierce  animosities  among  rival  sects, 
perpetuate  the  errors  and  dogmas  of  unenlightened  times,  and  degrade 
religion  into  an  engine  of  civil  tyranny,  or  the  ally  of  ignorance  and 
imposture.  In  the  large  towns  and  populous  places  of  New  England  and 
the  middle  States,  religious  instruction  is  more  faithfully  and  abundantly 
dispensed,  and  religious  ordinances  are  more  strictly  and  universally  ob- 
served, than  in  any  other  country  in  the  world;  and  over  the  Union, 
generally,  religion  is  respectably  and  honorably  supported.  In  newly 
settled  districts,  where  a  small  population  is  spread  over  a  wide  surface, 
the  means  of  religious  instruction  are  often  deficient. 

The  numbers  of  established  churches,  or  congregations,  are  estimated  at 
over  12,000,  and  the  ministers  at  about  10,500.  The  Presbyterians  and 
Congregationalists  are  the  most  numerous  denominations.  The  Baptists 
are  estimated  as  second  in  numerical  amount,  and  the  Methodists,  Roman 
Catholics,  Episcopalians,  Universalists,  Lutherans,  Christians,  German 
Reformed,  and  Friends,  or  Quakers,  probably  rank  in  point  of  numbers 
in  the  order  in  which  they  are  mentioned.  Other  sects,  respectable  in 


THE  UNITED  STATES. 


195 


amount  of  numbers,  are  Unitarians,  Associate  and  other  Methodists,  Free- 
will Baptists,  Dutch  Reformed  Menonites,  Associate  and  Cumberland 
Presbyterians,  Tunkers,  and  many  others.  In  fact,  almost  all  the  sects  of 
Christianity  are  represented  in  our  country. 

In  some  of  the  States,  certain  modes  of  belief  are  required  as  qualifica- 
tions for  office.  In  Massachusetts,  Maryland,  and  North  Carolina,  the 
declaration  of  a  belief  in  the  Christian  religion  is  required  as  a  qualifica- 
tion. In  New  Jersey,  no  Protestant  can  be  denied  any  civil  right  on  account 
of  his  religious  principles ;  and  in  Pennsylvania,  Mississippi,  and  Tennes- 
see, the  belief  in  a  God  and  a  future  state  of  rewards-  and  punishments, 
must  be  avowed  by  those  who  are  candidates  for  office.  In  the  other 
States,  no  religious  test  is  required. 

Persons  conscientiously  scrupulous  of  taking  an  oath,  are  everywhere 
permitted  to  substitute  a  solemn  affirmation,  and  this  is  recognized  by  all 
the  constitutions,  except  those  of  Virginia  and  North  Carolina,  and  the 
charter  of  Rhode  Island,  a  hiatus  which  is  supplied  in  those  States  by  law. 
Those  who  are  conscientiously  scrupulous  of  bearing  arms,  are  everywhere 
allowed  to  pay  an  equivalent  for  personal  service.  In  Tennessee,  the  legis- 
lature is  enjoined  to  pass  laws  exempting  citizens  belonging  to  any  sect 
or  denomination  of  religion,  the  tenets  of  which  are  known  to  be  opposed 
to  the  bearing  of  arms,  from  attending  private  and  general  musters.  Minis- 
ters of  the  Gospel  are  not  eligible,  either  as  governors  or  legislators,  in 
Maryland,  Virginia,  North  Carolina,  South  Carolina,  Mississippi,  Tennes- 
see, and  Kentucky.  In  Missouri,  the  only  civil  office  they  can  hold  is  that 
of  justice  of  the  peace;  while  in  New  York,  Delaware,  and  Louisiana,  they

POST-OFFICE. 

The  first  post  in  America  was  established  in  New  York,  in  1710,  under 
the  old  colonial  government.  In  1789,  the  exclusive  direction  of  posts  was 
conferred  by  the  constitution  on  Congress.  At  that  period,  there  were  but 
75  post-offices  in  the  United  States,  and  on  the  1st  July,  1833,  the  number 
was  10,127.  There  is,  perhaps,  no  instance  in  which  the  rapid  growth  of 
our  country  is  so  apparent,  as  in  the  increase  of  the  post-office  establish- 
ment. The  following  statement  will  exhibit  the  condition  of  the  depart- 
ment at  the  periods  respectively  mentioned : —

The  annual  transportation  of  the  mail  was,  on  the  1st  July, 
26,854,485  miles;  on  the  1st  July,  1829,  it  was  13,700,000  miles, 
increase  in  4  years  being  13,154,485  miles,  shows  that  the  annual  trans- 
portation of  the  mail  had  nearly  been  doubled  in  the  short  period  of  four 
years.  The  increase  of  the  annual  amount  of  postages,  within  the  same 


196  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


period,  is  $909,119,  and  the  whole  amount  is  double  of  what  it  was  in 
1825.  The  average  expense  of  transporting  the  mail,  in  1829,  was  eight 
cents  and  four-tenths  of  a  cent  per  mile,  and  in  1833,  7  cents  and  fifty- 
seven  hundredths  of  a  cent  per  mile ;  making  a  difference  in  the  rate  per 
mile,  equal,  for  the  whole  service,  to  $222,892  22  cts.  per  year  less,  in 
proportion  to  the  service  performed,  than  the  transportation  in  1829,  besides 
a  considerable  increase  in  expedition  between  the  principal  commercial 
cities,  and  a  much  greater  proportion  of  the  whole  performed  in  stages. 

The  Post-office  Department  is  under  the  superintendence  of  the  Post- 
master General.  He  has  the  sole  appointment  of  all  Postmasters  through- 
out the  United  States,  the  making  of  all  contracts  for  carrying  the  mail, 
and  the  direction  of  everything  relating  to  the  department.  The  revenue 
arising  from  the  General  Post-office  has  been  generally  expended  upon  the 
extension  and  improvement  of  the  establishment,  by  which  means  the 
regular  conveyance  by  mail  of  letters,  pamphlets,  newspapers,  &c.,  has 
been  extended  to  the  inhabitants  of  every  part  of  the  Union,  even  to  the 
remotest  territorial  settlements.

PRIVILEGE   OF   FRANKING. 

Letters  and  packets  to  and  from  the  following  officers  of  the  government,  are  by  law 
received  and  conveyed  by  post  free  of  postage  : 

The  President  and  Vice-President  of  the  United  States ;  Secretaries  of  State,  Trea 
sury,  War,  and  Navy  ;  Attorney  General ;  Postmaster  General  and  Assistant  Post- 
master General ;  Comptrollers,  Auditors,  Register,  and  Solicitor  of  the  Treasury 
Treasurer ;  Commissioner  of  the  General  Land  Office ;  Commissioners  of  the  Navy 
Board ;  Commissary  General ;  Inspectors  General ;  Quartermaster  General ;  Paymaster 
General ;  Superintendent  of  Patent  Office  ;  Speaker  and  Clerk  of  the  House  of  Repre- 
sentatives ;  President  and  Secretary  of  the  Senate ;  and  any  individual  who  shall  have 
been,  or  may  hereafter  be,  President  of  the  United  States ;  and  each  may  receive  news- 
papers by  post,  free  of  postage. 

Each  member  of  the  Senate,  and  each  member  and  delegate  of  the  House  of  Repre- 
sentatives, may  send  and  receive,  free  of  postage,  newspapers,  letters,  and  packets, 
weighing  not  more  than  two  ounces,  (in  case  of  excess  of  weight,  excess  alone  to  be 
paid  for,)  and  all  documents  printed  by  order  of  either  House,  during,  and  sixty  days 
before  and  after,  each  session  of  Congress. 

Postmasters  may  send  and  receive,  free  of  postage,  letters  and  packets  not  exceed- 
ing half  an  ounce  in  weight ;  and  they  may  receive  one  daily  newspaper,  each,  or 
what  is  equivalent  thereto. 

Printers  of  newspapers  may  send  one  paper  to  each  and  every  other  printer  of  news- 
papers within  the  United  States,  free  of  postage,  under  such  regulations  as  the  Post- 
master General  may  provide. 

VIOLATION  OF   FRANKING    PRIVILEGE. 

Any  person  who  shall  frank  any  letter  or  letters,  other  than  those  written  by  himself 
or  by  his  order,  in  the  business  of  his  office,  shall,  on  conviction  thereof,  pay  a  fine  of 
ten  dollars — and  it  is  made  the  especial  duty  of  postmasters  to  prosecute  for  such 
offence.  The  law  provides,  however,  that  the  Secretaries  of  State,  Treasury,  War, 
and  Navy,  and  Postmaster  General,  may  frank  letters  or  packets  on  official  business, 
prepared  in  any  other  public  office  in  the  absence  of  the  principal  thereof. 

If  any  person,  having  the  right  to  receive  letters  free  of  postage,  shall  receive, 
inclosed  to  him,  any  letter  or  packet  addressed  to  a  person  not  having  that  right,  it  is 
his  duty  to  return  the  same  to  the  Post-office,  marking  thereon  the  place  from  whence 
it  came,  that  it  may  be  charged  with  postage. 

Any  person  who  shall  counterfeit  the  hand-writing  or  frank  of  any  person,  or  cause 
the  same  to  be  done,  in  order  to  avoid  the  payment  of  postage,  shall,  for  each  offence, 
pay  five  hundred  dollars. 

No  Postmaster  or  assistant  Postmaster  can  act  as  agent  for  lottery-offices,  or  under 
any  color  of  purchase  or  otherwise  vend  lottery  tickets  ;  nor  can  any  Postmaster  receive 
free  of  postage,  or  frank  any  lottery  schemes,  circulars,  or  tickets.  For  a  violation  of 
this  provision  of  the  law,  the  persons  offending  shall  suffer  a  penalty  of  fifty  dollars. 

No  Postmaster,  or  assistant  Postmaster,  or  clerk  employed  in  any  Post-office,  can 
be  a  contractor,  or  concerned  in  any  contract  for  carrying  the  mail. 

PUBLIC  LANDS. 

The  unoccupied  lands  within  the  limits  of  the  United  States,  and  not 
owned  by  the  individual  States,  by  private  persons,  or  by  Indian  tribes, 
vest  in  the  General  Government,  and  form  the  national  domain,  or  public 
lands  of  the  United  States.  The  property  in  these  lands  was  acquired  by 
various  treaties  of  purchase  and  of  cession.  The  title  to  the  vast  regions 
west  and  north-west  of  the  river  Ohio,  and  to  the  west  of  North  Carolina, 
South  Carolina,  and  Georgia,  was  the  subject  of  the  first  great  political 
controversy,  that  divided  the  opinions  of  the  people  of  the  United  States, 
after  the  declaration  of  Independence.  The  ancient  charters  of  several  of 
the  States  extended  from  ocean  to  ocean,  or  indefinitely  to  the  west.  They 
consequently  crossed  each  other,  and  threw  the  same  territory  into  the 

R2 


98  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


imits  of  several  States.  The  controversies  on  this  subject  Were,  however, 
ut  at  rest  by  several  acts  of  cession,  made  by  the  States  interested  to  the| 
Jnited  States.  New  York  set  the  example  in  1781,  Virginia  followed  in! 
784,  Massachusetts  in  1785,  and  Connecticut  ceded  her  claim  in  1786, 
etaining,  however,  a  considerable  district  in  Ohio,  known  by  the  name  of 
he  Western  or  Connecticut  Reserve,  which  was  finally  ceded  to  the  United 
States  in  1800,  and  by  the  United  States  to  Ohio.  The  foundation  of  the 
ample  school  fund  of  Connecticut  was  laid  in  the  proceeds  of  this  reserved 
ract.  Out  of  this  territory  have  been  formed  the  States  of  Ohio,  Indiana, 
llinois,  Michigan,  and  the  extensive  territory  now  annexed  to  it.  In  1787, 
South  Carolina  ceded  her  claims  to  the  western  lands,  and  was  followed, 
n  1789,  by  North  Carolina,  who  relinquished  her  claim  to  the  territory 
now  forming  the  State  of  Tennessee.  The  cession  of  Georgia  alone  was 
wanting  for  the  amicable  adjustment  of  this  great  controversy.  This  took 
)lace  after  a  series  of  highly  embarrassing  transactions  in  1802,  when  that 
State  ceded  to  the  General  Government  the  region  now  occupied  by  Ala- 
>ama  and  Mississippi.  By  the  Louisiana  treaty  of  1803,  the  United  States 
acquired,  for  fifteen  millions  of  dollars,  the  tract  of  country  known  by  that 
name,  and  to  the  same  extent,  as  possessed  by  France  and  Spain.  This 
carried  the  territory  of  the  United  States  to  the  Pacific  Ocean  ;  and  the 
)ublic  lands  in  Florida  were  acquired  by  virtue  of  the  treaty  of  February 
22d,  1819,  between  the  United  States  and  Spain. 

Bounty  lands  having  been  promised  by  the  continental  Congress  to  the 
officers  and  soldiers  of  the  continental  army,  it  became  necessary  to  redeem 
hat  pledge  as  early  as  possible.  The  controversies  between  the  several 
States,  and  between  them  and  the  United  States,  retarded  for  some  time 
the  fulfilment  of  this  pledge.  On  the  20th  of  May,  1785,  an  ordinance 
,vas  passed  by  the  Congress  of  the  confederation  for  ascertaining  the  mode 
of  disposing  of  lands  in  the  western  territory,  and  this  was  the  first  act  of 
general  legislation  on  the  subject.  Under  it,  however,  very  limited  sales 
were  made,  not  amounting,  in  the  whole,  to  more  than  121,540  acres.  On 
the  10th  of  May,  1800,  an  act  of  Congress  was  passed,  providing  for  the 
surveying  and  sale  of  the  national  lands.  By  this  act,  the  foundation  of 
the  present  land  system  was  laid :  it  has,  from  time  to  time,  received  such 
modifications  as  were  found  expedient.  The  survey  and  sales  of  the  public 
lands  are  under  the  control  and  direction  of  the  Commissioner  of  the  Gene- 
ral Land  Office  at  Washington.  Prior  to  the  25th  of  April,  1812,  grants 
of  land  were  issued  by  letters-patent  from  the  Department  of  State.  By 
an  act  of  that  date,  a  General  Land  Office  was  established,  in  which  all 
patents  for  land  are  now  made  out  and  recorded.  It  is  a  subordinate 
branch  of  the  Treasury  Department,  with  which  it  is  closely  connected  by 
the  accountability  of  the  receivers  of  public  moneys  arising  from  the  sale 
of  the  national  lands.  Whenever  the  public  interest  is  supposed  to  require 
that  a  certain  portion  of  territory  should  be  brought  into  market,  for  the 
accommodation  of  settlers,  or  others  who  may  wish  to  become  purchasers, 
the  President  issues  instructions  to  the  Surveyor  General,  through  the 
Commissioner  of  the  General  Land  Office  at  Washington,  to  have  such 
portion  of  territory  surveyed.  The  Surveyor  General  makes  this  requisi- 
tion publicly  known  to  those  individuals  who  are  in  the  habit  of  contracting 
for  public  surveys,  and  a  contract  for  the  execution  of  the  surveys  required 
is  entered  into  between  the  Surveyor  General  and  deputy  surveyors.  The 


THE  UNITED  STATES.  199 


contract  is  given  to  the  lowest  bidder,  provided  the  Surveyor  General  is 
fully  satisfied  of  his  capacity  to  fulfil  the  contract.  The  maximum  price 
established  by  law  for  executing  the  public  surveys  is  three  dollars  a  mile, 
in  the  upland  and  prairie  countries :  in  the  southern  parts  of  the  United 
States,  where  the  surveys  are  rendered  difficult  by  the  occurrence  of 
bayous,  lakes,  swamps,  and  cane-brakes,  the  maximum  price  established 
by  law  is  four  dollars  a  mile.  The  deputy  surveyors  are  bound  by  their 
contract  to  report  to  the  surveyors  general  the  field-notes  of  the  survey  of 
each  township,  together  with  the  plot  of  the  township.  From  these  field- 
notes,  the  Surveyor  General  is  enabled  to  try  the  accuracy  of  the  plot 
returned  by  the  deputy  surveyor,  and  of  the  calculations  of  the  quantity 
in  the  legal  subdivisions  of  the  tract  surveyed.  From  these  documents, 
three  plots  are  caused  to  be  prepared  by  the  Surveyor  General — one  for 
his  own  office,  one  for  the  Register  of  the  proper  land  office,  to  guide  him 
in  the  sale  of  the  land,  and  the  third  for  the  Commissioner  of  the  General 
Land  Office  at  Washington.  The  Government  has  generally  found  it 
expedient  to  authorize  the  surveying  of  forty  townships  of  land  annually, 
in  each  land  district,  so  as  to  admit  of  two  sales  by  public  auction  annually 
of  twenty  townships  each. 

The  public  lands  are  laid  off  into  districts,  in  each  of  which  there  is  a 
land  office,  under  the  superintendence  of  two  officers  appointed  by  the 
President  and  Senate,  called  the  Register  of  the  Land  Office  and  the  Re- 
ceiver of  Public  Moneys.  There  are  at  present  fifty-two  land  offices.  All 
the  lands,  before  they  are  offered  for  sale,  are  surveyed  at  the  expense  of 
Government.  The  surveys  are  founded  upon  a  series  of  true  meridians. 
The  first  principal  meridian  is  in  Ohio,  the  second  in  Indiana,  the  third 
in  Illinois,  &c.,  each  forming  the  base  of  a  series  of  surveys,  of  which  the 
lines  are  made  to  correspond,  so  that  the  whole  country  is  at  last  divided 
into  squares  of  one  mile  each,  and  townships  of  six  miles  each ;  and  these 
subdivisions  are  distributed  with  mathematical  accuracy  into  parallel  ranges. 
The  greatest  division  of  land  marked  out  by  the  survey  is  called  a  town- 
ship, and  contains  23,040  acres,  being  six  miles  square.  The  township  i 
subdivided  into  36  equal  portions,  or  square  miles,  by  lines  crossing  each 
other  at  right  angles :  these  portions  are  called  sections.  The  section  con- 
tains 640  acres,  and  is  subdivided  into  4  parts,  called  quarter-sections,  each 
of  which  contains  160  acres.  The  quarter-sections  are  finally  divided  into 
2  parts,  called  half  quarter-sections,  of  80  acres  each,  and  this  is  the 
smallest  regular  subdivision  known  to  the  system. 

One  thirty-sixth  part  of  all  the  lands  surveyed,  being  section  No.  16 
of  each  township,  is  reserved  from  sale  for  the  support  of  schools  in  the 
township,  and  other  reservations  have  been  made  for  colleges  and  univer- 
sities. Salt-springs  and  lead-mines  are  also  reserved,  and  are  subject  to 
be  leased,  under  the  direction  of  the  President  of  the  United  States :  he  is 
also  empowered  by  law  to  remove,  by  force,  unauthorized  settlers  on  the 
|  publio  lands. 

Previous  to  the  year  1820,  sales  of  public  lands  were  made  upon  credit. 
In  consequence  of  this  system,  large  quantities  of  land  had  been  purchased 
on  speculation,  and  a  vast  amount  of  debt  to  the  Government  contracted. 
To  relieve  the  embarrassed  condition  of  these  debtors,  an  act  was  passed, 
authorizing  the  relinquishment  of  lands  purchased,  and  substituting  cash 
payments  for  the  credit  system.  At  the  same  time,  the  minimum  price  of 


200  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


land  was  reduced  from  two  dollars  to  one  dollar  and  twenty-five  cents  per 
acre.  The  lands  are  first  exposed  for  sale  by  proclamation  of  the  Presi- 
dent :  the  highest  bidder  at  this  sale  failing  to  pay,  the  tract  is  offered 
again,  and  the  failing  bidder  is  declared  incapable  of  purchasing.  At  the 
sales,  choice  tracts  and  favorite  positions  command  good  prices,  but  a  large 
proportion  of  the  lands  remain  unsold,  and  are  entered  for  private  sale. 
A  great  amount  of  public  land  is  in  the  occupancy  of  persons  who  have 
settled  upon  it  without  legal  title.  This  is  not  done  from  any  intention,  on 
the  part  of  the  settler,  to  defer  payment,  but  takes  place  principally  in 
consequence  of  unavoidable  delays  in  the  bringing  the  land  to  market. 
Laws  have  been  passed,  granting  to  persons  of  this  description  a  pre-emp- 
tion right  in  the  acquisition  of  a  title,  that  is,  the  preference  over  all  other 
persons  in  entering  the  land  at  private  sale. 

Five  per  cent,  on  all  sales  of  public  lands  within  the  States  severally  is 
reserved — three-fifths  of  which  is  to  be  expended  by  Congress  in  making 
roads  leading  to  the  States,  and  two-fifths  to  be  expended  by  the  States  in 
the  encouragement  of  learning.  The  first  part  of  this  reservation  has 
been  expended  on  the  Cumberland  road  ;  and  the  treasury  of  the  United 
States  is  greatly  in  advance  to  that  fund,  on  account  of  this  public  work. 

The  quantity  of  unceded  lands,  belonging  to  the  Indians,  and  lying  north 
and  west  of  the  States  and  territories  of  the  United  States,  but  within  the 
limits  of  the  Union,  has  been  estimated  at  near  800,000,000  of  acres.  In 
a  report  of  the  Land  Commissioner,  dated  April  2d,  1832,  it  is  stated  that 
the  quantity  of  land  belonging  to  the  United  States,  December  31, 1831,  to 
which  the  Indian  and  other  titles  had  been  extinguished,  was  227,293,884 
acres ;  that  10,713,317  acres  had  been  appropriated  within  the  States  and 
territories  where  the  lands  lie,  for  internal  improvements,  colleges,  acade- 
mies, common  schools,  &c. ;  298,288  acres  had  been  reserved  as  saline 
lands  ;  and  that  46,080  acres  had  been  granted  to  the  deaf  and  dumb  insti- 
tutions in  Connecticut  and  Kentucky.  For  the  title  to  these  lands,  the 
United  States  have  paid,  on  the  Louisiana  purchase,  $23,514,225,  includ- 
ing principal  and  interest;  on  the  Florida  purchase,  86,251,016 ;  on  the 
Georgia,  Yazoo,  and  other  contracts,  $18,312,219:  total,  $48,077,551. 
The  amount  of  sales,  up  to  September,  1831,  has  been  $37,272,713: 
balance,  $10,804,838.  The  amount  of  sales  is  gradually  on  the  increase  : 
in  1832,  the  amount  was  $3,115,376.  To  the  present  time,  it  appears 
that  upwards  of  150  minions  of  acres  have  been  surveyed,  about  20  mil- 
lions sold,  about  110  millions  of  acres  surveyed  and  unsold,  of  which  80 
millions  are  in  market,  ready  for  entry  at  the  minimum  price,  and  about  30 
millions  subject  to  be  proclaimed,  whenever  there  is  a  demand.  A  claim 
has  been  set  up  in  some  of  the  new  States  to  the  entire  property  of  the 
public  lands  within  their  limits.  No  attempt  has,  however,  been  made  to 
enforce  this  claim.

POPULATION. 

That  which  most  concerns  every  State  is  the  population  of  its  territory, 
including,  together  with  the  number  of  inhabitants,  a  view  of  their  condi- 
tion, and  their  means  of  subsistence  and  improvement.  Civilized  nations 
are  solicitous,  especially,  to  ascertain  the  number  of  persons  who  compose 
their  respective  communities.  Different  methods  have  been  practised  for 
accomplishing  this  purpose :  one  has  been  by  estimates  founded  on  the 
number  of  houses,  and  arbitrarily  allowing  a  given  number  of  persons  for 
each  dwelling ;  and  others  by  estimates  founded  on  the  number  of  births, 
and  on  the  number  of  deaths.  But  it  is  evident  that  no  reliance  can  be 
placed  on  the  accuracy  of  estimates  founded  on  such  data ;  and  the  only 
satisfactory  method  is  an  actual  enumeration  of  the  inhabitants.  Exact 
enumerations  of  the  population  of  the  most  civilized  countries  of  Europe 
are  of  but  recent  date.  The  population  of  France  was  not  accurately  deter- 
mined till  after  the  French  revolution  of  1789,  nor  that  of  England  till 
1801.  The  Government  of  the  United  States  is  entitled  to  the  honor,  we 
believe,  of  having,  at  its  first  institution,  set  the  example  of  establishing  a 
system  of  an  official  Census  of  the  inhabitants  at  regular  periods.  The 
primary  object  of  this  Census  is  the  apportionment  of  the  representatives 
in  Congress ;  but,  independently  of  this  object,  it  is  justly  regarded  as  a 
very  important  and  interesting  document,  inasmuch  as  it  furnishes  the  most 
satisfactory  index  of  the  growth,  prosperity,  and  strength  of  the  country. 

By  the  Constitution  of  the  United  States,  it  was  provided  that  the  first 
Census  should  be  made  within  three  years  after  the  first  meeting  of  Con- 
gress, and  within  every  subsequent  term  of  ten  years,  in  such  manner  as 
they  shall  by  law  direct.  The  first  Census  was,  accordingly,  taken  in 
1790,  in  which  the  population  of  the  United  States  is  divided  into  5  classes, 
exhibiting  the  total  amount  of  the  several  classes  as  follows : 

1.  Free  white  males  under  16  years  of  age, 813,298 

2.  Free  white  males  of  16  years  and  upwards, 802,327 

Free  white  females, 1,556,839 


3. 

4.  All  other  persons,  except  Indians,  not  taxed, 


59,466 


5.  Slaves, 697,897 


Total  population  of  the  United  States  in  1790,  3,929,827 
In  the  second  Census,  taken  in  1800,  the  population  was  divided  into 
12  classes :  the  free  white  males  and  the  free  white  females,  being  each 
distributed  into  5  classes,  according  to  age,  and  all  other  free 'persons, 
except  Indians,  not  taxed,  forming  the  llth  class,  and  the  slaves  the  12th. 
The  following  statement  exhibits  the  total  amount  of  each  of  the  several 
classes : —

The  fourth  Census  was  taken  in  1820,  in  which  each  sex  of  the  free 
white  inhabitants  was  divided,  according  to  age,  into  5  classes,  as  in  the 
second  and  third  censuses ;  and,  in  addition,  the  number  of  free  white 
males,  between  16  and  18  years  of  age,  was  exhibited  in  a  distinct  column. 
Persons  engaged  in  agriculture,  commerce,  and  manufactures,  were  also 
divided  into  3  several  classes ;  and  foreigners,  not  naturalized,  formed  an 
additional  class.  In  the  three  first  enumerations,  all  other  free  persons, 
except  Indians,  not  taxed,  were  thrown  into  one  mass,  without  distinction 
of  age  or  sex,  and  the  same  course  was  adopted  respecting  the  slaves ;  but 
in  the  fourth  Census,  each  sex  of  both  these  descriptions  of  persons  was 
distinguished  according  to  age,  into  four  classes.  The  results  of  this  Cen- 
sus were  as  follows :

The  fifth  Census  was  taken  in  1830,  in  which  a  new  division  of  the  free 
white  inhabitants  was  adopted,  each  sex  being  distributed  into  quinquennial 
divisions,  under  20  years  of  age,  and  into  decennial  classes,  from  20  to 
100  years;  but  a  different  method  was  followed  with  respect  to  the  free 
colored  persons  and  slaves,  each  sex  of  these  two  classes  being  formed  into 
six  divisions.  The  number  of  white  and  colored  persons  who  were  deaf 
and  dumb  was  also  stated,  and  each  divided  into  three  classes,  according  to 
age  :  the  number  of  persons  blind  is  likewise  exhibited.  The  numbers  of

APPORTIONMENT  OF  REPRESENTATIVES. 

By  the  law  passed  in  1832,  for  the  apportionment  of  Representatives 
among  the  several  States,  it  is  enacted,  that  from  and  after  the  third  day 
of  March,  1833,  the  House  of  Representatives  shall  be  composed  of  mem- 
bers elected  agreeably  to  a  ratio  of  one  Representative  for  every  47,700 
persons  in  each  State,  computed  according  to  the  rule  prescribed  by  the 
Constitution  of  the  United  States,  which  is  as  follows : 

Representatives  and  direct  taxes  shall  be  apportioned  among  the  several 
States  which  may  be  included  within  this  Union,  according  to  their  respec- 
tive numbers,  which  shall  be  determined  by  adding  to  the  whole  number  of

INDIVIDUAL  STATES. 


MAINE. 

MAINE  is  the  most  northern  and  eastern  of  the  United  States.  Previous 
to  the  year  1820,  it  was  connected  with  Massachusetts,  in  all  its  political 
and  social  relations.  The  first  permanent  settlement  was  made  from  the 
Plymouth  colony  at  York,  in  1630.  Emigration  has  been  more  slow  to 
this  State,  than  to  those  of  a  milder  climate ;  yet,  perhaps,  there  is  no  State 
in  the  Union  which  promises  more  independence,  from  its  own  natural 
strength  and  resources. 

Maine  is  bounded  on  the  north  and  north-west  by  Lower  Canada ;  south-east 
by  the  Atlantic  Ocean ;  east  by  New  Brunswick ;  and  west  by  New  Hamp- 
shire. Its  extent  from  north  to  south,  is  about  216  miles ;  and  from  east  to 
west,  162.  The  area  is  about  31,750  square  miles,  or  19,720,000  acres. 
On  the  sea-coast,  the  country  is  generally  level ;  at  some  distance  in  the 
interior,  hilly ;  and  in  the  central  parts  of  the  state,  are  many  mountains  of 
considerable  elevation. 

The  principal  Rivers  are  the  St.  John's,  Penobscot,  Kennebeck,  Andros- 
coggin,  Saco,  Pleasant,  Damariscotta,  and  Union.  The  principal  Bays  are 
Casco,  Penobscot,  Frenchman's,  Englishman's,  Machias,  and  Passama- 
quoddy.  The  most  noted  Lakes  are  Moosehead,  Umbagog,  Sebago,  the 
Schoodic  Lakes,  and  Lake  Chesuncook.  Small  lakes  and  ponds  are 
numerous,  in  all  parts  of  the  State. 

The  soil  on  the  coast  is  various,  and  of  but  moderate  fertility ;  in  the 


206 


interior,  most  of  the  land  is  more  productive  ;  and  some  of  it,  especially  on 
the  Kennebeck  and  Penobscot  rivers,  is  fertile,  and  well  adapted  to  agricul- 
ture  and  grazing.  The  produce  is  principally  grain,  of  all  the  kinds  raised 
in  New  England ;  flax,  grass,  &c. 

The  climate  of  this  State  is  subject  to  great  extremes  of  heat  and  cold  ; 
yet  the  air,  in  all  parts  of  the  country,  is  pure  and  salubrious.  The  sum- 
mers are  short,  but  agreeable.  The  cold  of  winter  is  severe ;  yet  the 
serenity  of  the  sky,  and  the  invigorating  influence  of  the  atmosphere,  make 
amends  for  the  severity  of  the  weather.  The  coast  is  indented  with  bays 
abounding  in  excellent  harbors,  affording  great  facilities  for  commerce.  Vast 
quantities  of  lumber,  in  all  its  varieties,  are  exported ;  as  also,  fish,  beef, 
pork,  pot  and  pearl  ashes,  grain,  &c.  In  1831,  the  imports  were  to  the 
value  of  $941,407,  and  the  exports  $805,573;  of  which,  $799,748  was 
in  domestic  produce.  The  tonnage  entered,  101,444  tons.  The  banking 
capital  of  the  State  is  $2,170,000.  The  State  expenses,  in  1830,  were 
about  $297,000 ;  of  which,  $50,000  was  raised  by  direct  taxation.  In 
1826,  there  were  138,000  children  in  Maine,  between  4  and  21  years  of 
age  ;  of  which,  about  102,000  attended  school.  The  annual  expenditure  is 
about  $138,000.  Every  town  within  the  State  is  obliged,  by  law,  to  raise 
annually  a  sum  equivalent  at  least  to  40  cents,  from  each  person  within  the 
town,  for  the  support  of  common  schools.  $5,000  is  annually  appropriated 
for  the  education  of  indigent  deaf  and  dumb  persons,  at  the  American 
Asylum  in  Hartford,  Connecticut.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENT. 

The  Cumberland  and  Oxford  Canal  extends  from  Portland  to  Sebago 
Pond  :  it  has  26  locks,  and  is,  in  length,  20£  miles.  By  means  of  a  lock, 
constructed  in  Songo  River,  Brandy  and  Long  Ponds  are  united  with  it. 
The  whole  extent  of  water  communication,  natural  and  artificial,  is  about 
50  miles.  It  was  completed  in  1829,  and  cost  211,000  dollars.

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


NEW  HAMPSHIRE. 

THE  earliest  settlements  in  this  State  were  made  in  1622,  by  virtue  of  a 
grant  from  the  Plymouth  Company  to  John  Mason  and  Ferdinand  Gorges. 
Their  first  locations  were  at  Little  Harbor,  on  the  west  side  of  the  Pis- 
cataqua  river,  and  at  Cocheco,  now  Dover.  Portsmouth  was  first  settled 
in  1631,  and  Exeter  in  1638.  In  1641,  the  first  settlers  formed  a  coalition 
with  Massachusetts,  and  remained  connected  with  that  Colony  until  1679. 
In  1776,  New  Hampshire  led  the  van  in  forming  a  constitution  of  her  own, 
founded  on  the  free  suffrages  of  the  people.  In  1784,  a  new  constitution 
was  adopted,  which,  with  the  amendments  of  1792,  forms  the  present  con- 
stitution of  the  State. 

This  State  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Lower  Canada ;  on  the  east  by 
Maine,  and  the  Atlantic  Ocean ;  south  by  Massachusetts ;  and  west  by 
Vermont.  It  is  in  length,  from  north  to  south,  about  160  miles  ;  and  from 
east  to  west,  70  is  about  the  average  breadth.  It  is,  in  area,  8,500  square 
miles,  or  5,440,000  acres.  The  sea-coast  of  this  State,  from  Piscataqua 
Harbor  to  the  south  boundary,  is  but  1 8  miles  in  extent. 

The  country  on  the  coast  is  level :  in  the  interior,  the  surface  is  greatly 
diversified  by  hills  and  valleys,  and  contains  several  mountains  of  consid- 
erable height ;  among  which  are  the  White  Mountains,  the  most  elevated 
of  any  in  the  Atlantic  States.  The  other  considerable  elevations  are, 
Moosehillock,  Monadnock,  Kearsarge,  Sunapee,  Ossipee,  &c. 

The  soil  is  various,  a  considerable  portion  being  fertile ;  but  it  is  gener- 
ally better  adapted  to  grazing,  than  to  tillage. 

The  principal  Rivers  of  New  England  have  their  origin,  either  wholly 
or  in  part,  in  this  State.  These  are,  the  Connecticut,  Merrimack,  Andros- 
coggin,  Saco,  and  Piscataqua.  The  other  most  considerable  streams  are, 
the  Upper  and  Lower  Amonoosuck,  Sugar  River,  Ashuclot,  Contoocook, 
Magallaway,  and  Nashua.  The  principal  Lakes  are  the  Winnipiseogee, 
Umbagog,  Ossipee,  Sunapee,  Squam,  and  Newfound  Lake. 

The  Manufactures  of  New  Hampshire  have  increased  rapidly,  within  a 
few  years.  There  are  now  more  than  40  cotton  and  woollen  manufacto- 
ries ;  many  of  them  on  an  extensive  scale.  The  imports  into  New  Hamp- 
shire amounted,  in  1831,  to  $146,205,  and  the  exports  to  $111,222;  of 
which,  the  domestic  produce  was,  in  value,  $109,456  :  and  the  tonnage  of 
the  State,  at  the  same  period,  amounted  to  18,243  tons. 

New  Hampshire  has  been  called  the  granite  State,  from  the  large  quan- 
tities of  that  rock  quarried  within  it ;  of  which,  a  considerable  amount  is 
annually  exported  to  the  neighboring  States,  for  building  stones.  It  has 
been,  also,  called  the  Switzerland  of  America,  on  account  of  its  wild  and 
picturesque  scenery,  its  lakes,  cascades,  &c.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

The  internal  improvements  in  this  State,  are  a  series  of  short  canals, 
constructed  on  the  Merrimack  River,  for  the  improvement  of  its  navigation  ; 
by  means  of  which,  and  the  Middlesex  Canal,  Boston  is  connected  with  the 
interior  of  New  Hampshire. 

Bow  Canal,  three-quarters  of  a  mile  in  length,  affords  a  boat  navigation 
round  the  falls  at  Bow ;  the  fall  is  25  feet,  with  4  locks :  it  was  completed 
in  1812,  and  cost  $25,000.  Hooksett  Canal  passes  Hooksett  Falls,  by  3 
locks,  with  a  fall  of  16  feet :  its  length  is  about  50  rods,  and  cost  $17,000. 
Amoskeag  Canal  is  a  mile  in  length :  the  fall  is  45  feet,  with  9  locks,  and 
cost  $50,000.  The  Union  Canal  passes  7  falls  in  the  river,  and  has  7 
locks  in  9  miles:  it  cost  $50,000.  In  the  year  1811,  a  company  was 
incorporated,  (the  charter  of  which  has  since  been  renewed,)  for  the  pur- 
pose of  forming  a  Canal  from  Lake  Winnipiseogee  to  Cocheco  River.  Near 
Dover,  the  waters  of  the  lake  being  elevated  above  the  river  452  feet,  it 
is  estimated  to  require  53  locks  to  overcome  the  fall :  the  length  to  be  about 
27  miles,  and  the  work  to  cost  $300,000.

VERMONT. 

THE  tract  of  country  which  is  now  known  by  the  name  of  Vermont, 
was  settled  at  a  much  later  period  than  any  of  the  other  eastern  States. 
Its  distance  from  the  Atlantic  coast,  and  from  the  River  St.  Lawrence, 
prevented  any  settlement  being  made  in  it,  either  by  the  French  or  English, 
until  the  colonies  of  the  latter  extended  themselves  into  its  vicinity.  The 
conquest  of  Canada  in  1760,  and  its  ultimate  cession  to  Great  Britain  in 
1763,  opened  Vermont  to  emigration.  Vermont  was  originally  claimed  by 
Massachusetts ;  and  afterwards,  both  by  New  Hampshire  and  New  York. 
In  1777,  the  people  declared  themselves  independent,  and  formed  a  govern- 
ment of  their  own.  Although  Vermont  was  not  admitted  into  the  Union 
until  after  the  revolutionary  contest  was  over,  yet  she  vigorously  resisted 
British  oppression,  and,  throughout  the  war  of  the  Revolution,  acted  a  most 
conspicuous  part  in  the  struggle  for  independence.  Her  soldiers  acquired 
great  distinction  for  bravery,  and  the  title  of  "  Green  mountain  boys," 
which  they  bore,  has  ever  been  regarded  as  a  title  of  renown.  In  1790, 


VERMONT. 


211 


the  controversy  with  New  York  was  terminated;  and,  in  1791,  Vermont 
became  a  member  of  the  Union.  The  constitution  now  in  operation  was 
adopted  July  4th,  1793. 

This  state  is  bounded  N.  by  Lower  Canada ;  E.  by  N.  Hampshire  ;  S.  by 
Massachusetts  ;  W.  by  New  York  ;  from  which  it  is  separated,  in  part,  by 
Lake  Champlain.  It  is  157  miles  in  length,  from  north  to  south ;  90  miles 
in  breadth,  on  the  northern,  and  40  on  the  southern,  boundary ;  and  con- 
tains an  area  of  10,212  square  miles,  or  6,535,680  acres. 

The  Green  Mountains,  from  which  the  state  derives  its  name,  on  account 
of  the  evergreens  with  which  they  are  covered,  occupy  a  large  part  of  the 
State  ;  and  most  of  its  surface  is  uneven.  The  range  passes  through  its  whole 
length,  about  half  way  between  Lake  Champlain  and  the  Connecticut  river. 

From  these  mountains,  many  streams  take  their  rise :  the  most  important 
are,  Otter  creek,  Onion  river,  La  Moile,  and  Missinqua,  which  empty  into 
Lake  Champlain,  on  the  west ;  the  White,  Pasumpsic,  and  West  rivers, 
which  flow  into  the  Connecticut,  on  the  east. 

The  scenery  of  this  State  is  romantic,  and  beautiful ;  the  air  pure,  and 
healthful ;  and  the  natives  industrious,  intelligent,  and  hospitable. 

The  soil  is  fertile ;  and  all  sorts  of  grain,  suited  to  the  climate,  are  pro- 
duced in  great  abundance.  Dark,  rich,  and  loamy,  it  is  admirably  calcu- 
lated to  sustain  drought ;  and  affords  the  finest  pasturage  of  any  State  in 
the  Union.  Wool  is  becoming  an  important  product  here.  Cattle  of  various 
kinds  are  raised,  with  great  facility ;  and  nowhere  is  finer  beef  to  be 
seen,  than  is  fed  on  the  rich  white  clover  pastures  of  Vermont.  The  butter 
and  cheese  are  universally  known  for  their  excellence. 

Vermont  is  entirely  in  the  interior ;  yet,  by  the  system  of 'internal  improve- 
ment, the  Champlain  Canal,  and  the  Lake,vessels  and  steam -boats  have  brought 
her  territory  in  contiguity  with  the  sea.  Part  of  the  trade  goes  by  canal  to 
Albany,  and  part  down  the  lake  to  Montreal :  much  of  that  which  formerly 
went  to  Boston  and  Hartford,  is  now  drawn  by  the  Champlain  Canal  to 
New  York.  This  canal  has  been  of  incalculable  advantage  to  the  State. 

Vermont  has  13  banks,  whose  aggregate  capital  is  about  a  million  of 
dollars.     About  $100,000  is  annually  raised  for  the  support  of  common 
schools.     There  is  also  in  this  State,  a  literary  fund  of  $25,000.

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

There  have  been  several  short  canals  constructed  in  this  State,  on  the 
western  bank  of  the  Connecticut  river ;  intended,  principally,  for  improving 
the  navigation  of  that  river.  The  White  river  Canal  is  a  small  work 
around  a  fall  in  the  Connecticut,  affording  a  passage  for  flat-bottomed 
boats,  and  rafts.  The  Waterqueechy  Canal,  in  Hartland,  is  another  work 
of  a  similar  nature.  The  Bellows  Falls  Canal,  in  Rockingham,  is  the 
most  important,  being  about  half  a  mile  in  length,  with  nine  locks,  over- 
coming a  fall  of  about  50  feet.  It  is  cut  through  a  bed  of  hard  granite ; 
and  affords  a  safe  passage  for  small  steam-boats,  rafts,  and  flat-bottomed 
boats.

THIS  State,  the  oldest  and  most  important  in  New  England,  was  first 
permanently  settled  by  a  party  of  emigrants  from  England,  who  left  their 
native  country  on  account  of  religious  persecution,  to  seek  an  asylum  in 
which  they  might  enjoy  freedom  of  conscience,  unrestrained  by  arbitrary 
power.  They  landed  at  Plymouth,  in  Cape  Cod  Bay,  December  22d,  1620  ; 
and  there  was  first  tried  the  experiment  of  founding  a  colony  on  the 
principles  of  general  virtue  and  intelligence.  In  founding  this  political 
community,  the  doctrine  of  equal  rights  and  powers  of  individuals  was 
distinctly  recognized.  Legislative  acts  were  early  passed,  for  the  instruc- 
tion of  every  child  in  the  community.  Religion  was  the  first  care  of  the 
colonists,  and,  in  imitation  of  the  primitive  Christians,  they  threw  all  their 
property  into  a  common  stock  ;  but  the  experience  of  the  mischiefs  arising 
from  this  political  partnership,  soon  induced  them  to  relinquish  it.  Another 
settlement,  under  the  title  of  the  Massachusetts  Bay  Colony,  was  planted 
at  Salem,  in  1628.  These  colonies  were  formed  by  the  oppressions,  and, 
for  the  first  seventy  years  of  their  existence,  struggled  against  the  arbitrary 
measures  of  the  Stuart  dynasty,  until  the  Revolution  of  1688  drove  the 
tyrants  from  the  seat  of  their  abused  power.  They  remained  separate 
until  1692,  when  they  were  united  under  a  new  charter,  granted  by  Wil- 
liam and  Mary,  including  Maine.  During  the  Indian  and  French  wars, 
Massachusetts  expended  much  blood  and  treasure.  On  her  soil,  the  first 
spark  of  American  independence  was  lighted :  the  contest  against  the 
tyranny  of  the  mother  country  commenced,  at  Lexington,  11  miles  north- 
west of  Boston.  On  a  plain  stone  column,  near  the  church  on  the  public 
square,  is  the  simple  and  affecting  inscription  of  the  names  of  the  first 
victims  of  the  struggle.  No  State  in  the  Union  has  left  a  more  indelible 
impress  of  her  enterprise,  education,  institutions,  and  character,  on  the 
whole  country,  and  on  all  countries  where  the  American  flag  is  unfurled, 
than  Massachusetts. 


214  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


This  State  is  bounded  north  by  Vermont  and  New  Hampshire ;  east  by 
the  Atlantic  Ocean  ;  south  by  Rhode  Island  and  Connecticut ;  and  west  by 
New  York.  The  average  extent,  from  north  to  south,  is  70  miles ;  and 
from  east  to  west,  140  ;  area,  8,500  square  miles,  or  5,440,000  acres. 

The  Green  Mountains  range  through  the  central  parts  of  the  State,  from 
north  to  south.  These  mountains,  in  their  whole  extent,  abound  in  noble 
elevations,  dark-green  forests,  pleasant  and  sheltered  valleys,  and  an 
infinite  variety  of  impressive  scenery.  The  highest  peaks  are,  Saddle 
Mt.,  Taghkonic,  Mt.  Tom,  Mt.  Holyoke,  &c. 

Massachusetts  has  no  large  rivers  wholly  within  her  bounds.  The  Mer- 
rimack  passes  out  of  New  Hampshire  into  the  northern  division  of  the 
State,  emptying  into  the  sea  at  Newburyport.  The  Connecticut,  in 
traversing  it  from  north  to  south,  nearly  bisects  the  State.  The  Housatonic, 
Charles,  and  Ipswich,  Neponset,  and  Taunton,  though  they  have  short 
courses,  are  pleasant  streams.  The  deep  bay  between  Cape  Ann  and 
Cape  Cod,  which  has  given  name  to  the  State,  has  caused  it  to  be  known 
in  the  other  States  by  the  name  of  the  Bay  State.  Cape  Ann  bounds  it  on 
the  north,  and  Cape  Cod  on  the  south. 

Agriculture  receives  here  great  attention,  and  is  conducted  with  a  superior 
degree  of  skill  and  intelligence.  Commerce  and  manufactures  are,  how- 
ever, the  great  objects  of  pursuit.  In  this  State,  there  are  near  40  millions 
of  dollars  invested  in  manufacturing  stock;  of  which,  6£  millions  are 
employed  in  Lowell  alone.  This  place,  which  is  second  only  to  Pittsburg, 
as  a  manufacturing  town,  and  may  be  considered  the  Manchester  of 
America,  has  been  unexampled  in  its  rapid  growth.  It  was  commenced  in 
1813  ;  but  its  principal  increase  dates  from  1822  :  it  now  contains  from  12 
to  13,000  inhabitants.  Its  various  cotton  and  woollen  factories  give 
employment  to  about  6,000  operatives ;  the  greater  part  of  whom  are 
females.  About  10£  million  pounds  of  cotton,  and  near  seven  hundred 
thousand  pounds  of  wool,  are  expended  annually,  in  the  production  of  about 
27  million  yards  of  cotton  and  woollen  goods,  and  carpeting.  The  supply 
of  water-power  from  the  Merrimack  is  convenient  and  unfailing.  Waltham 
is  likewise  noted  for  its  manufactures  :  and  in  the  town  of  Lynn,  from  l£ 
to  2  million  pairs  of  shoes  are  made  annually;  the  principal  part  of  which 
are  exported  to  the  West  Indies,  and  the  southern  States. 

The  commerce  of  Massachusetts  extends  to  all  parts  of  the  globe.  In 
the  amount  of  its  shipping,  it  is  among  the  first  in  the  Union ;  and,  in  its 
import  trade,  second  only  to  New  York.  In  1831,  the  imports  amounted 
to  $14,269,056  ;  and  the  exports,  to  $7,733,763  ;  of  which,  84,027,201 
was  domestic  produce  and  manufactures,  and  $3,706,682  foreign  produce. 

Twenty  millions  of  dollars  are  employed  in  banking  capital ;  and  about 
eight  millions  in  insurance  offices. 

This  State  shares  the  greater  portion  of  the  whale  and  bank  fisheries  in 
the  United  States.  This  pursuit  employs  many  thousand  hands,  furnishes 
one  of  the  most  important  branches  of  trade  in  these  parts  of  the  United 
States,  and  trains  vast  numbers  of  the  most  intrepid  and  experienced  mari- 
ners'in  the  world. 

Her  literary,  religious,  and  charitable  institutions,  are  the  pride  of  Massa- 
chusetts. Within  a  few  years,  Boston  alone  has  expended  nearly  two 
millions  of  dollars  for  objects  of  that  character,  exclusive  of  an  annual 
expenditure  of  about  $200,000,  for  the  support  of  public  and  private  schools.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 
CANALS; 

The  Middlesex  Canal  connects  the  Merrimack  river  with  Boston  harbor. 
It  extends  from  Charlestown,  opposite  Boston,  to  Chelmsford, — 27  miles. 
The  company  was  incorporated  in  1789,  and  the  canal  was  completed  in 
1808.  Breadth  at  the  surface,  30  feet ;  at  bottom,  20  ;  depth  of  water,  3 
feet;  lockage,  136  feet;  with  20  locks,  and  5  aqueducts.  Summit-level, 
104  feet  above  tide- water;  and  32  above  the  Merrimack.  This  work,  in 
connexion  with  those  in  New  Hampshire,  opens  a  water  communication 
between  Boston  and  the  interior  parts  of  that  State.  Cost  8528,000. 

PawtucTtet  CanaZ,  in  the  town  of  Lowell,  is  1^  miles  in  length,  90  feet 
wide,  and  4  feet  deep ;  overcoming  -a  fall  of  32  feet.  It  was  originally 
constructed  in  1797,  but  has  been  since  widened  and  deepened  ;  and  is  now 
a  very  important  work,  affording  an  extensive  water-power  to  numerous 
manufactories. 

Blackstone  Canal. — This  work  commences  at  Worcester,  Massachusetts, 
and  extends  to  Providence,  R.  I.  It  has  48  locks,  each  80  feet  long  by  10 
wide:  breadth  at  the  surface,  34  feet;  at  the  bottom,  18  feet;  depth  of 
water,  4  feet.  The  cost  of  this  canal  was  about  $600,000.  It  was  com- 
pleted in  1828.  The  summit-level  at  Worcester  is  451.61  feet  above  tide- 
water at  Providence. 

The  Hampshire  and  Hampden  Canal  is  intended  to  connect  with  the 
Farmington  Canal  at  Southwick,  and  to  extend  thence  to  Northampton — 
20  miles  :  rise  and  fall,  298  feet.  This  work,  when  completed,  will,  with 
the  Farmington  Canal,  connect  the  Connecticut  river  with  New  Haven 
harbor.  Entire  distance,  78  miles. 

South  Hadley  Canal  was  constructed  for  passing  a  fall  of  50  feet,  in 
Connecticut  river.  It  is  2  miles  in  length,  with  5  locks.  About  one-third 
of  the  length  of  the  canal  is  cut  through  a  solid  rock,  10  feet  deep ;  and 


216  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


near  the  locks,  more  than  40  feet  deep,  for  300  feet  in  length.  It  was 
the  earliest  work  of  the  kind  in  the  United  States,  being  commenced  in 
1792. 

Montague  Canal,  on  the  east  bank  of  the  Connecticut  river,  was  con- 
structed for  passing  a  fall  of  60  feet  in  the  river.  It  is  3  miles  long,  25 
feet  wide,  and  3  feet  deep ,  with  8  locks. 

RAIL    ROADS. 

Quincy  Rail-Road. — This  work  was  constructed  for  transporting  granite 
from  the  quarry  at  Quincy,  to  the  tide-waters  of  Neponset  river.  Includ- 
ing branches,  it  is  4  miles  in  length,  single  track,  of  stone  and  iron :  an 
inclined  plane  of  375  feet  in  length,  serves  to  convey  the  stone  down  an 
elevation  of  85  feet  to  the  road,  at  the  foot  of  the  quarry.  It  is  the  first 
work  of  the  kind  finished  in  the  United  States,  being  completed  in  1827. 

Boston  and  Worcester  Rail-Road. — This  road  is  to  extend  to  Worcester, 
43  miles  :  estimated  to  cost  about  $900,000,  and  to  be  completed  in  1834. 
It  is  proposed  to  continue  the  road  to  the  Connecticut  river ;  thence,  through 
Berkshire  county  into  the  state  of  New  York,  to  connect  with  the  New 
York  and  Albany  Rail-Road  at  Greenbush,  opposite  to  Albany  :  the  whole 
distance  about  200  miles. 

Boston  and  Providence  Rail-Road. — This  work  is  to  extend,  in  nearly  a 
straight  line,  from  Boston  to  Providence, -R.  I.,  42  miles.  The  company 
was  incorporated  in  1831,  with  a  capital  of  81,000,000.  Probably,  the 
road  will  be  finished  in  1834.  The  immense  amount  of  passengers  and 
merchandise  constantly  passing  and  repassing  between  Boston  and  the 
south,  will  render  this  work  one  of  the  most  important  of  the  kind  in  the 
Union.  It  is  proposed,  at  a  future  period,  to  continue  the  road  to  either 
Stonington  or  New  London,  as  shall  be  found  most  expedient. 

Boston  and  Taunton  Rail-Road,  to  extend  from  Boston  to  Taunton ;  dis- 
tance 32  miles.  The  Company  was  incorporated  in  1831,  with  a  capital 
of  $1,000,000.  It  is  proposed  to  unite  this  work  with  the  Boston  and  Provi- 
dence Rail-Road,  at  Sharon,  18  miles  from  Boston. 

Boston  and  Lowell  Rail-Road — From  Boston  to  Lowell,  25  miles.  The 
company  was  incorporated  in  1830  :  to  be  completed  in  1834.  This  work 
is  to  be  carried,  across  Charles  river,  by  a  wooden  viaduct,  and  to  terminate 
at  the  canal  basin  in  Lowell ;  from  which,  there  are  to  be  branches  along 
the  several  canals,  to  the  factories.  Near  its  northern  termination,  it  passes 
through  a  ledge  of  rock  about  900  feet  long,  and  40  feet  high.  The  cut  is 
60  feet  wide  at  the  top,  and  30  feet  at  the  bottom.  This  is  considered  as 
the  commencement  of  a  series  of  rail-roads,  to  be  carried  through  the 
States  of  New  Hampshire  and  Vermont,  to  a  point  on  Lake  Champlain, 
opposite  to,  or  near,  Plattsburg  ;  thence,  across  the  State  of  New  York 
to  Ogdensburgh,  on  the  St.  Lawrence  river :  the  entire  distance,  about 
335  miles. 

The  accomplishment  of  this  line  of  rail-roads  will  afford  to  the  city  of 
Boston,  and  the  country  through  which  the  road  passes,  as  great  and 
important  advantages  as  any  other  enterprise  of  the  kind  in  the  United 
States. 

A  Rail-Road  is  likewise  contemplated  from  Boston  to  Salem :  to  be 
continued  to  the  northern  line  of  the  State.

RHODE    ISLAND 

Is  THE  smallest  State  in  the  Union,  but  is  pleasantly  situated,  and  pos- 
sesses numerous  facilities  for  commerce  and  manufactures,  which  the  enter- 
prise of  its  citizens  has  improved  to  great  advantage.  The  founder  of 
this  State  was  Roger  Williams,  a  man  remarkable  for  his  benevolence, 
justice1,  and  pacific  policy.  He  was  banished  from  the  Plymouth  colony  for 
avowing  the  doctrine  of  the  equal  toleration  of  all  religious  sects  in  the 
same  political  community.  In  1636,  he  purchased  lands  of  the  Indians, 
and,  in  conjunction  with  his  followers,  founded  the  present  flourishing  city 
of  Providence,  which  place  he  thus  named  in  grateful  acknowledgment  of 
the  protection  of  Heaven.  In  1638,  Williams  was  followed  by  Codrington 
and  others,  who  settled  the  island  of  Rhode  Island.  By  the  wise  policy  of 
Williams  towards  the  Indians,  and  his  respect  to  all  sects  of  religion,  this 
colony  was  rendered  exceedingly  prosperous.  The  settlement  of  Rhode 
Island  was,  for  a  long  time,  regarded  with  a  jealous  eye  by  its  powerful 
neighbor,  Massachusetts ;  and  the  colony,  deprived  of  any  assistance,  was 
forced  to  depend  upon  its  own  growing  resources.  When  the  confederacy 
of  the  United  Colonies  of  New  England  was  formed,  in  1643,  Rhode  Island, 
at  the  instance  of  Massachusetts,  was  excluded  from  it,  and  her  commis-

sioners  were  not  admitted  in  the  congress  of  deputies  which  formed  it.  On 
her  petitioning,  five  years  afterwards,  to  be  received  as  a  member,  her 
request  was  refused,  unless  she  would  consent  to  be  incorporated  with 
Plymouth,  and  thereby  surrender  her  separate  existence.  The  condition 
was  rejected  without  hesitation,  and  she  was  never  admitted  into  the  con- 
federacy. For  a  long  period  previous  to  the  American  revolution,  the 
affairs  of  Rhode  Island  are  barren  of  incidents.  Fortunate  in  living  under 
a  well-regulated  democracy,  enjoying  a  salubrious  climate,  and  possessing 
great  advantages  for  commerce,  the  inhabitants  of  this  province,  if  they 
played  no  distinguished  part  in  the  drama  of  life,  were  prosperous  and 
happy.  This  tranquil  period  was  terminated,  in  1765,  by  the  stamp  act, 
against  which,  and  every  other  violence  of  the  British  Government,  Rhode 
Island  opposed  a  steady  and  effectual  resistance.  As  early  as  1774,  the 
royal  stores  and  artillery  were  seized ;  and  when  the  day  of  open  war 
dawned,  she  acted  a  conspicuous  part  in  the  revolutionary  contest.  In  the 
convention  which  met  in  1787,  for  the  purpose  of  revising  the  Federal 
Constitution,  Rhode  Island  was  not  represented,  and  for  some  time  evinced 
considerable  hostility  to  the  new  frame  of  government.  She  was  the  last 
of  the  original  thirteen  States  to  accede  to  the  present  constitution,  her 
consent  being  retarded  until  May,  1790. 

Rhode  Island  has  no  written  constitution,  and  differs  in  this  respect  from 
the  other  States.  She  is  governed  by  the  charter  of  Charles  II.,  granted 
in  1663,  the  provisions  of  which  are  so  liberal,  that  little  inconvenience  has 
been  hitherto  experienced  from  the  want  of  a  constitution. 

This  State  is  bounded  north  and  east  by  Massachusetts,  south  by  the 
Atlantic  Ocean,  and  west  by  Connecticut.  Its  extent,  from  north  to  south, 
is  about  48  miles,  and  from  cast  to  west,  42 ;  area  1,500  square  miles,  or 
960,000  acres.  The  face  of  the  country  is  mostly  level,  except  in  the  north- 
west, part  of  which  is  hilly  and  rocky.  The  soil  is  generally  better  adapted 
to  grazing  than  tillage.  A  large  proportion  of  the  north-western  and  west- 
ern part  of  the  State  has  a  thin  and  lean  soil,  but  the  islands  and  country 
bordering  on  Narragansett  Bay  are  of  great  fertility,  and  are  celebrated  for 
their  fine  cattle,  and  the  abundance  and  excellence  of  their  butter  and 
cheese.  The  products  are  corn,  rye,  barley,  oats,  and  some  wheat. 

The  island  of  Rhode  Island  is  celebrated  for  its  beautiful,  cultivated 
appearance,  abounding  in  smooth  swells,  and  being  divided  with  great 
uniformity  into  well-tilled  fields.  The  climate  much  resembles  that  of 
Massachusetts  and  Connecticut  in  its  salubrity :  the  parts  of  the  State 
adjacent  to  the  sea  are  favored  with  refreshing  breezes  in  summer,  and  its 
winter  is  the  most  mild  of  any  of  the  New  England  States. 

This  is  the  most  manufacturing  section  of  the  Union,  in  proportion  to  its 
population.  In  1831,  there  were  116  cotton  manufactories,  5  bleacheries, 
and  2  calico-printing  establishments,  with  an  aggregate  capital  of  $6,794,715 
employed  alone  in  the  manufacture  of  cotton.  The  commercial  prosperity 
of  the  State  has  kept  pace  with  its  manufactures :  the  amount  of  shipping 
is  between  40  and  50,000  tons.  The  amount  of  imports  was,  in  1831, 
$562,161  :  exports,  domestic,  $348,250  ;  foreign,  $19,215  :  total  $367,465. 
In  no  part  of  the  United  States  has  banking  been  carried  on  to  such  an 
extent  as  in  Rhode  Island.  There  are  in  this  small  State  51  banks,  with 
an  aggregate  capital  of  $6,723,296.  There  are  at  present  323  public 
schools,  towards  the  support  of  which  the  State  pays  annually  $10,000.

CONNECTICUT.  221 


CONNECTICUT. 

CONNECTICUT  was  first  settled  by  emigrants  from  Massachusetts,  who 
located  themselves  in  Windsor,  Hartford,  and  Weathersfield.  A  charter 
was  granted  to  them  by  Charles  II.,  in  1662.  New  Haven,  which  was 
settled  by  emigrants  from  England  in  1638,  formed,  for  some  time,  a 
separate  colony ;  but  was  united  with  Connecticut,  under  this  charter,  in 
1665.  The  people  were  greatly  harassed  by  the  arbitrary  and  oppressive 
conduct  'of  James  II.  In  1687,  Sir  Edmond  Andros,  having  been  appointed 
governor  of  New  England,  came  to  Hartford,  and,  by  royal  authority, 
demanded  a  surrender  of  the  charter.  The  assembly,  being  then  in  session, 
were  reluctant  to  comply  ;  and,  while  the  subject  was  under  consideration, 
the  charter  was  secretly  conveyed  away,  and  concealed  in  the  cavity  of  an 
old  oak  tree,  on  the  estate  of  Mr.  Wyllys,  one  of  the  magistrates  of  the 
colony.  This  charter  formed  the  basis  of  the  government,  until  1818, 
when  the  present  constitution  was  adopted. — Blessed  with  a  salubrious 
climate,  and  a  fertile  country  of  hill  and  dale,  the  people  of  this  state  enjoy 
as  much  happiness  as  is  allotted  to  any  part  of  the  human  family.  Its 
population  is  always  full,  although  its  domain  is  not  extensive.  No  Atlantic 
State  has  sent  so  many  of  its  children,  or  so  large  a  share  of  intellectual 
wealth,  to  the  western  country.  In  no  part  of  the  world,  have  more  ample 
means  been  provided  for  education,  than  in  this  State.  Her  institutions 
of  learning,  and  provision  for  the  general  instruction  of  the  people, 
have  placed  Connecticut  on  a  proud  eminence  among  her  sister  States. 
Her  school  fund  is  nearly  two  millions  of  dollars ;  the  interest  of  which, 
amounting  in  1832  to  upwards  of  $84,000,  affords  instruction  to  about 
90,000  children,  annually. 

Perfect  religious  toleration  is  enjoyed  in  Connecticut:  no  person  is 
compelled  to  support,  or  be  connected  with,  any  religious  association  or 
church. 

This  State  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Massachusetts ;  south  by  Long 
Island  Sound ;  east  by  Rhode  Island  ;  and  west  by  New  York.  It  is  90 
miles  in  length,  70  miles  in  breadth,  and  contains  4,764  square  miles,  or 
3,048,960  acres. 

The  principal  Rivers  are,  the  Connecticut,  Housatonic,  Thames,  Farm- 
ington,  and  Naugatuck.  The  face  of  the  country  is,  generally,  hilly ;  and, 
in  the  north-western  parts,  mountainous. 

The  soil  is  good ;  and  the  industrious  inhabitants  have  not  neglected  its 
cultivation.  The  valley  of  Connecticut  river,  from  Middletown  to  the 
northern  boundary  of  the  State,  is  a  luxuriant  meadow,  chequered  by 
patches  of  wheat,  corn,  and  other  grain.  Some  other  parts  of  the  State 
are  well  cultivated,  and  fruitful ;  and  some  portions  are  beautiful,  as  well 
from  the  gifts  of  nature,  as  the  improvements  of  art. 

The  chief  productions  are,  Indian  corn,  rye,  wheat;  in  many  parts, 
oats,  barley,  buckwheat,  flax  in  large  quantities,  &c.  Orchards  are 
numerous,  and  cider  is  made  for  exportation.  The  State  is,  however, 
generally  better  adapted  to  grazing  than  tillage,  and  its  fine  meadows  and 
pastures  enable  the  farmer  to  feed  great  numbers  of  neat  cattle,  horses,  and 
sheep.  The  quantity  of  butter  and  cheese,  annually  made,  is  great,  and 
of  well-known  excellence.

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


The  manufactures  of  Connecticut  are  considerable ;  and  the  ingenuity 
and  industry  of  the  people,  in  this  line,  have  a  reputation  coextensive  with 
the  Union.  The  principal  articles  are  cotton  and  woollen  goods,  clocks, 
glass,  hats,  buttons,  fire-arms,  a  large  amount  of  tin- ware,  and  many  other 
products. 

The  foreign  trade  is  chiefly  with  the  West  Indies ;  but  it  is  less  extensive 
than  the  coasting  trade.  The  exports  were,  in  1831,  $448,883.  New 
London,  Stonington,  and  some  other  towns,  have  lately  engaged,  with 
much  success,  in  the  whaling  business. 

There  are  twenty  banks,  with  a  capital  of  upwards  of  five  millions  of 
dollars;  besides  which,  there  are  11  insurance  companies,  and  five  banks 
for  savings.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 
CANALS. 

Farn.ington  Canal. — This  work  commences  at  New  Haven,  and  passes 
through  the  State  of  Connecticut,  58  miles,  to  the  northern  boundary  of 
the  State,  where  it  connects  with  the  Hampshire  and  Hampden  Canal,  20 
miles  in  length,  terminating  at  Northampton,  on  the  Connecticut  river : 
whole  distance,  78  miles.  Fifty-six  miles  of  this  canal  are  completed.  It 
is  36  feet  wide,  at  the  surface  of  the  water  ;  20  feet  at  the  bottom ;  and  4 
feet  in  depth :  lockage,  218  feet.  The  locks  are  80  feet  in  the  clear,  and 
12  feet  wide.  At  its  commencement,  at  New  Haven,  is  a  basin  of  20 
acres.  Commenced  in  1825,  and  finished  in  1831,  at  a  cost  of  $600,000. 

Enfield  Canal. — This  Canal  is  constructed  around  Enfield  Falls,  on 
Connecticut  river.  It  commences  about  11  miles  above  Hartford,  and  is  5£ 
miles  in  length,  with  3  locks,  each  90  by  20  feet,  overcoming  a  fall  of  30 
feet.  Besides  the  advantages  derived  from  this  work,  in  the  improvement 
of  the  navigation  of  the  river,  it  furnishes  a  large  amount  of  water-power, 
which  is  yet  but  partially  improved. 

RAIL  ROAD. — A  rail-road  has  been  projected  from  New  Haven  to  Hart- 
ford, and  a  company  formed  for  the  purpose  of  carrying  it  on.

NEW  YORK. 

THE  territory  now  forming  the  State  of  New  York  was  originally 
included  in  the  grant  of  Virginia,  made  by  Queen  Elizabeth,  and  in  the 
grant  of  North  and  South  Virginia,  made  in  1606  by  James  I.  This  part 
of  the  continent  was,  however,  unknown  to  Europeans,  until  1609,  when 
it  was  first  discovered  by  Henry  Hudson,  an  enterprising  English  naviga- 
tor, then  in  the  employ  of  the  Dutch  East  India  Company.  The  first 
settlements  were  made  by  the  Dutch,  in  1614,  at  New  Amsterdam  and 
Fort  Orange,  now  the  cities  of  New  York  and  Albany.  In  1621,  the 
States  General  of  the  United  Provinces  granted  the  colony  to  the  Dutch 
West  India  Company,  by  the  name  of  the  New  Netherlands.  From  the 
Dutch  it  was  conquered  by  the  English,  in  1664,  and  granted  by  Charles 
II.,  together  with  some  adjacent  parts,  to  his  brother  James,  Duke  of  York, 
when  it  first  received  the  name  it  now  bears. 

New  York  soon  became  an  important  colony,  and  continued  gradually 
to  grow  in  resources  and  population.  The  people  of  this  province  opposed 
as  strenuous  a  resistance  to  the  arbitrary  measures  of  the  mother  country, 
as  any  of  her  sister  colonies  ;  and,  during  the  continuance  of  the  revolu- 
tionary contest,  was  the  theatre  of  hostilities  for  most  part  of  that  gloomy 
period.  Some  of  the  most  memorable  events  of  the  war  occurred  in  this 
State,  particularly  the  capture  of  General  Burgoyne  and  his  army,  in  1777, 
a  year  also  rendered  memorable  in  her  annals  by  the  adoption  of  a  repub- 
lican constitution. 

From  the  peace  of  1783,  she  made  wonderful  advances  in  wealth  and 
population.  This  State  takes  rank  in  the  confederacy  of  the  Union,  not 
only  in  population,  but  in  extent  and  wealth,  great  public  works,  and 
geographical  position.  Her  central  situation,  excellent  climate,  fertile  and 
extensive  territory;  her  navigable  rivers,  magnificent  internal  improve- 
ments, and  vast  inland  seas,  together  with  the  proximity  of  her  chief  city 
to  the  Ocean,  all  afford  her  the  greatest  advantages  in  agriculture,  com- 
merce, and  manufactures.  What  the  hand  of  nature  has  withheld  from 
New  York,  the  genius  of  her  Clintons  and  her  Fultons  has  supplied  :  she 
is,  in  fact,  an  epitome  of , all  configurations  of  surface,  all  varieties  of  land 
and  river  scenery,  and  all  conditions  of  man,  from  the  sumptuous  patrician 
of  Broadway,  to  the  backwoodsman  rearing  his  humble  cabin  amid  the 
primeval  forests  of  the  west. 


NEW- YORK.  225 


This  State  produces  in  great  abundance  all  the  staple  commodities  and 
luxuries  common  to  the  climate,  the  surplus  of  which,  and  large  quantities 
from  other  States,  find  an  easy  access  to  the  great  mart  of  New  York. 
The  salt-springs  of  Onondaga  Lake,  at  the  villages  of  Salina,  Syracuse, 
&c.,  produce  a  large  revenue  to  the  State ;  and  the  mineral  waters  of 
Ballston  and  Saratoga  give  health  to  many  and  pleasure  to  all  who  visit  them. 

This  State  carries  on  an  extensive  foreign  commerce  with  all  quarters 
of  the  world,  for  the  most  part  through  the  city  and  port  of  New  York. 
The  number  of  vessels  that  arrived  there  in  1832,  from  foreign  countries, 
was  1,810,  of  which  1,290  were  American.  The  amount  of  imports,  in 
the  same  year,  amounted  to  $52,855,929,  and  the  exports  to  $16,941,488, 
on  which  the  duties  that  accrued  to  the  General  Government  were 
817,123,174  70  cts. :  at  the  same  time  the  number  of  passengers  that 
arrived  was  48,589. 

New  York  is  the  most  northern  of  the  middle  States,  and  is  bounded 
north  by  Lake  Ontario,  the  St.  Lawrence  river,  and  Lower  Canada ;  east 
by  Vermont,  Massachusetts,  and  Connecticut ;  south  by  the  Atlantic  Ocean, 
New  Jersey,  and  Pennsylvania ;  and  west  by  Lake  Erie,  Pennsylvania, 
and  the  Niagara  river.  Length,  316  miles;  breadth,  304:  containing 
about  47,000  square  miles,  or  31,080,000  acres. 

The  principal  rivers  are  the  Hudson,  St.  Lawrence,  Delaware,  Susque.- 
hanna,  Alleghany,  Genesee,  Niagara,  Oswego,  and  the.  Mohawk.  A  part 
of  the  lakes  Erie,  Ontario,  and  Champlain,  are  in  this  State.  The  other 
principal  lakes  are  Lake  George,  Cayuga,  Seneca,  Oneida,  Oswegatchie, 
Canandaigua,  &c. 

The  soil  in  the  maritime  part  of  the  State  is  sandy,  in  the  middle  beauti- 
fully undulating,  and  in  the  western  and  southern  division  remarkably  level, 
rich,  and  inclining  to  alluvial  formation. 

In  this  State,  there  are  200  woollen  manufactories ;  112  cotton-mills, 
with  a  capital  of  $4,485,500,  manufacturing  21,010,920  yards,  valued  at 
$3;530,250,  and  using  7,961,670  pounds  of  cotton  annually,  and  employ- 
ing 15,970  persons;  above  200  iron-works,  making  $4,000,000  worth ; 
50  paper-mills,  making  $700,000  worth ;  leather  made  to  about  the  value 
of  $3,458,000  ;  and  hats  to  the  value  of  $3,500,000  ;  &c.  &c. ;  per  annum. 

The  annual  expenditure  for  common  schools  exceeds  one  million  dollars. 
Nearly  one-tenth  of  this  sum  is  paid  from  a  school  fund,  one-tenth  by  a 
tax  on  the  towns,  two-tenths  by  a  tax  on  the  property  of  the  several  school 
districts,  and  six-tenths  are  paid  voluntarily  by  the  parents  and  guardians 
of  the  scholars.  The  number  of  scholars  in  these  schools,  in  1833,  between 
the  ages  of  5  and  15  years,  was  508,878  ;  and  the  proportion  of  the  children 
that  are  known  to  be  taught,  to  the  whole  population  of  the  State,  is  more 
than  one  to  four.  In  nine  counties,  more  than  one-third  of  the  population 
are  children  Tat  school  during  some  part  of  the  year. 

By  an  act  of  the  State  of  New  York,  passed  in  1829,  every  bank  there- 
after to  be  chartered  or  renewed,  was  obliged  to  contribute  one  half  per 
cent,  per  annum  of  its  capital,  in  order  to  establish  a  safety  fund,  which 
should  be  placed  in  the  hands  of  commissioners,  to  provide  for  the  payment 
of  the  debts  of  any  banks  which  should  become  insolvent.  In  1833,  there 
were  61  banks  subject  to  this  act,  with  a  capital  of  $20,581,460.  The 
capital  of  banks  not  subject  to  the  safety  fund,  was  $8,100,000,  including 
three  branches  of  the  United  States'  Bank.

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


The  steam-boats  in  this  State,  in  1833,  were  estimated  at  82  in  number, 
the  principal  part  of  which  ran  from  the  city  of  New  York.  One  of  them 
measured  518  tons  burden.  The  most  rapid  boats  have  run  between  the 
two  cities  of  New  York  and  Albany  in  less  than  10  hours.  The  mail  is 
carried  from  New  York  to  Quebec,  (almost  the  whole  distance,  in  steam- 
boats,) in  96  hours.

NEW   JERSEY. 

THE  early  settlements  and  history  of  this  State,  present  a  scene  of  more 
variety  and  vicissitude  than  that  of  any  of  her  sister  colonies.  The  first 
settlement  was  nearly  cotemporary  with  that  of  New  York,  and  was  made 
by  the  same  people,  the  Dutch,  who,  in  conjunction  with  some  Danes,  in 
1624,  established  themselves  at  Bergen,  which  they  so  named  after  a  town 
in  Norway.  Shortly  afterward,  colonies  were  established  on  the  river  Dela- 
ware by  the  Swedes  and  Fins,  and  after  the  lapse  of  a  few  years  in  the 
same  neighborhood  by  the  English.  After  various  changes  of  govern- 
ment, it  was,  in  1676,  divided  into  the  provinces  of  East  and  West  Jersey  ; 
one  was  placed  under  the  royal  authority,  and  the  other  attached  to  the 
government  of  New  York.  In  1682,  East  Jersey  was  transferred  to  Wm. 
Penn  and  his  associates. 

In  1702,  both  provinces  were  united  under  the  government  of  New  York : 
this  continued  until  1738,  when,  greatly  to  the  advantage  of  the  people, 
and  the  establishment  of  peace  and  good  order,  the  colony  was  taken  un- 
der the  immediate  control  of  the  crown,  and  so  continued  until  the  abolition 
of  the  royal  authority  by  the  revolution.  Wm.  Temple  Franklin,  a  son 
of  the  celebrated  Benjamin  Franklin,  was  the  last  of  the  royal  governors. 
In  the  revolutionary  struggle,  and  in  the  incipient  resistance  to  the  oppres- 
sive measures  of  the  mother  country,  New  Jersey  bore  her  full  share,  and

in  the  hardships  of  an  eight  years'  war,  no  member  of  the  confederacy,  it 
is  probable,  suffered  so  much.  Her  devotion  to  the  cause  of  freedom  is 
fully  recorded  in  the  date  of  her  constitution,  July  2d,  1776,  two  days  be- 
fore the  Declaration  of  Independence  by  the  Continental  Congress. 

This  State  is  bounded  N.  by  New  York,  E.  by  the  Atlantic  Ocean  and 
New  York,  S.  by  Delaware  Bay,  and  W.  by  Pennsylvania.  It  is  138  miles 
in  length,  and  50  miles  in  breadth  ;  the  area  is  about  660  square  miles,  or 
4,224,000  acres. 

The  soil  of  this  State  is  not  naturally  well  adapted  to  agricultural  pursuits, 
much  of  the  land  being  either  sandy  or  marshy  ;  yet  its  proximity  to  two 
of  the  largest  markets  in  the  United  States,  and  the  industry  of  the  inhabit- 
ants, have  rendered  it  exceedingly  productive  of  all  sorts  of  fruits  and  vegeta- 
bles common  to  the  climate,  together  with  grain  and  meats  of  various  kinds. 

New  Jersey  is  intersected  by  many  navigable  rivers,  and  has  numerous 
streams  for  mills,  iron  works,  and  every  species  of  manufactures  requiring 
water-power.  The  principal  of  these  streams  are  the  Raritan,  Hackensack, 
Passaic,  Salem,  Tom,  Cohanzey,  and  Maurice  rivers. 

The  internal  communications  are  generally  good.  The  great  thorough- 
fare between  the  northern  and  southern  states  passes  through  New  Jersey, 
and  the  advantages  which  the  State  enjoys,  as  it  regards  distance  and  facili- 
ties in  transporting  goods  to  market,  are  not  exceeded  by  those  of  any 
equally  extended  district  of  the  country.  In  addition  to  the  natural  advan- 
tages of  water  communication,  the  State  enjoys  the  benefit  of  many  inter- 
nal improvements.  The  manufactures  are  extensive  and  flourishing.  They 
are  chiefly  of  iron,  cotton,  woollen,  paper,  leather,  carriages,  shoes,  &c. 
One  of  the  most  flourishing  manufacturing  towns  in  the  United  States  is 
Paterson,  in  this  State  ;  it  is  situated  just  below  the  romantic  falls  of  the 
Passaic,  which  supplies  water-power  to  any  extent.  The  numerous  estab- 
lishments have  created  a  very  considerable  town,  containing  about  800 
houses,  including  76  stores,  nine  churches,  a  bank,  &c.  The  articles  manu- 
factured here,  annually  amount  in  value  to  about  $2,600,000 ;  the  raw 
.materials  of  cotton,  flax,  and  wool  employed,  amounted  in  1832  to  about 
four  million  pound  weight,  four-fifths  of  which  was  cotton.  There  is  like- 
wise machinery  of  various  kinds ;  paper,  buttons,  &c.  are  produced  to  a 
considerable  extent.  The  system  of  common  school  instruction  has  hith- 
erto been  defective,  but  in  consequence  of  the  recent  efforts  of  the  friends 
of  education,  measures  have  been  commenced  which  promise  cheering  re- 
sults. The  State  possesses  a  school  fund,  which  commenced  in  1816. 
The  income  from  it,  which  is  about  $22,000,  is  annually  distributed  in 
small  sums  to  such  towns  as  raise  an  equal  amount  for  the  support  of 
schools.  Academies  and  private  schools  are  numerous  and  excellent.  There 
are  in  the  State  two  Colleges ;  Nassau  Hall  is  at  Princeton.

canal.  It  is  101  miles  in  length,  from  thirty  to  thirty-two  feet  wide  at  the 
surface  of  the  water,  from  sixteen  to  eighteen  at  the  bottom,  and  four  deep. 
Rise  and  fall  1,657,  of  which  223  feet  are  overcome  by  twenty-four  locks, 
and  the  remaining  1,334  feet  by  twenty-three  inclined  planes.  There  are, 
also,  connected  with  this  canal,  four  guard-locks,  five  dams,  thirty  culverts, 
twelve  aqueducts,  and  more  than  200  bridges.  The  water  for  this  canal  is 
supplied  from  Hopatcong  Lake,  situated  900  feet  above  tide-water.  Cost, 
as  estimated,  somewhat  more  than  $1,100,000. 

Delaware  and  Raritan  Canal,  extending  from  Lamberton  on  Delaware 
river,  to  New  Brunswick  on  the  Raritan,  is  now  in  progress.  Length  of 
the  main  canal,  38  miles ;  width  at  the  surface,  75  feet,  depth  7  feet.  The 
water  to  supply  this  canal  is  to  be  conducted  by  a  navigable  feeder,  50  feet 
wide,  and  5  feet  deep,  extending  from  Eagle  Island  on  the  Delaware,  to  its 
junction  with  the  main  canal  at  Trenton,  about  20  miles.  Whole  expense 
of  the  canal,. feeder,  &c.  estimated  at  81,438,227. 

Manasquan  River  and  Barnegat  Bay  Canal  Company,  was  authorized 
under  the  act  of  21st  February,  1833,  with  a  capital  of  $5,000,  to  make 
a  canal  40  feet  wide,  and  5  feet  deep,  from  the  mouth  of  the  Manasquan 
river  to  the  head  waters  at  Layton's  pond  or  ditch,  in  the  county  of  Mon- 
mouth ;  to  erect  tide-gates,  and  to  take  toll  for  passing  through  the  canal 
for  every  scow,  8  cents  per  ton ;  sail-boat,  or  small  craft,  10  cents  per  ton; 
and  for  every  fish-boat,  or  skiff,  25  cents  per  ton :  provided,  that  the  canal 
be  commenced  within  two,  and  finished  within  five  years.  A  short  canal 
of  about  four  miles  in  length,  in  Upper  and  Lower  Pcnn's  Neck  township, 
Salem  county,  connects  the  Salem  creek  with  the  Delaware  river,  and  saves 
to  sloops  that  ply  in  the  creek,  from  15  to  20  miles  of  the  distance  to  Phila- 
delphia.

PENNSYLVANIA. 

No  one  of  the  colonies  settled  by  Europeans,  made  such  rapid  advances 
in  population  and  prosperity  as  Pennsylvania.  The  philanthropy  and  wis- 
dom of  its  founder,  the  fertility  of  its  soil,  the  healthfulness  of  its  climate, 
the  pacific  disposition  of  the  natives,  and  the  lessons  of  experience  derived 
from  the  settlement  of  other  colonies  in  earlier  days,  and  under  more  rigor- 
ous skies,  all  conspired  to  render  this  colony  the  most  prosperous  of  any 
of  which  history  gives  an  account.  The  founder  of  this  great  State  was 
William  Perm,  the  immortal  asserter  of  toleration — a  doctrine  in  his  time 
unknown.  He  was  the  son  of  Sir  William  Penn,  an  admiral  in  the  British 
navy.  He  united  himself  with  the  society  of  Friends,  then  a  persecuted 
sect  in  England.  For  services  rendered  by  his  father,  Charles  II.  in  1681 
tendered  him  a  tract  of  land  in  the  western  world,  and  called  it  Pennsyl- 
vania. Penn,  with  about  2,000  followers,  left  England,  and  arrived  at 
New  Castle,  on  the  Delaware,  in  1682  ;  and  proceeding  up  the  river,  laid 
out  Philadelphia  according  to  a  plan  which  had  been  prepared  by  him  in 
England.  He  returned  shortly  afterwards  to  his  native  country,  where  he 
died  in  1718,  aged  74  years.  From  the  beginning  of  the  18th  century, 
till  the  commencement  of  the  revolution,  the  government  was  generally 
administered  by  deputies  adopted  by  the  proprietors  who  mostly  resided  in 
England. 

This  State  acted  a  conspicuous  part  in  the  war  of  the  revolution.  It  was 
in  her  capital  that  declaration  was  made  which,  in  a  measure,  changed  the 
history  of  the  world,  and  provided  a  vantage-ground  on  which  the  claims 
of  human  rights  could  be  sustained.  In  1776,  a  Constitution  was  formed, 
which  was  superseded  by  a  second,  adopted  in  1790.  Since  the  latter 
period,  the  course  of  Pennsylvania  has  been  generally  clear,  serene,  and 
brilliant. 

Pennsylvania  is  the  greatest  manufacturing  State  in  the  Union ;  and 
Philadelphia  takes  the  like  rank  among  our  manufacturing  cities.  Among 
the  various  branches  for  which  this  place  is  celebrated,  paper,  printing,  and 
publishing  are  important  items.  A  great  number  of  gazettes,  and  many 
critical,  scientific,  and  other  periodical  publications,  are  issued. 

In  1832,  there  were  67  cotton  manufactories  in  the  State,  with  an  ag- 
gregate capital  of  $3,758,500,  and  making  annually  21,332,467  yards  of

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


cloth.  In  iron  manufactures,  Pennsylvania  excels  any  other  State  in  the 
Union.  Iron  ore  is  very  widely  disseminated,  and  as  greatly  diversified  in 
quality  and  richness.  The  iron  mines  in  the  eastern  part  of  the  State  were 
explored  and  worked  at  an  early  period  of  colonial  settlement,  and  hac 
become  an  interest  of  great  value  before  the  revolution.  Since  the  peace 
of  1783,  with  much  fluctuation,  iron  has  at  all  times  employed  a  vast 
amount  of  capital  and  labor. 

The  total  value  of  manufactures,  including  about  250  different  articles, 
is  estimated  at  $70,000,000. 

The  foundation  of  the  wealth  and  improvement  of  this  prosperous  State 
is  deeply  laid  in  her  fertility  of  soil,  her  iron  mines,  her  vast  coal  stratas 
and  the  industry  of  her  population.  Belonging  to  the  state  is  the  magnifi- 
cent system  of  internal  improvements,  entitled  the  Pennsylvania  State  Ca- 
nals and  Rail-roads  ;  besides  many  works  of  the  same  kind,  the  property 
of  joint  stock  companies. 

This  State  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  New  York  and  Lake  Erie ;  east 
by  New  Jersey ;  south-east  by  Delaware ;  south  by  Maryland  and  Vir- 
ginia, and  west  by  part  of  Virginia  and  Ohio.  Its  greatest  length,  from 
east  to  west,  is  307  miles,  and  its  breadth  157  ;  area  46,000  square  miles, 
or  29,440,000  acres. 

The  principal  rivers  are  the  Delaware,  Schuylkill,  Lehigh,  Susquehanna, 
Juniatta,  Alleghany,  Monongahela,  and  Ohio.  The  various  ridges  of  the 
Alleghany  range  intersect  the  central  parts  of  this  State,  whose  general 
direction  is  from  south-west  to  north-east.  The  valleys  between  many  of 
these  ridges  are  often  of  a  rich  black  soil,  suited  well  to  the  various  kinds 
of  grass  and  grain.  Some  of  the  mountains  admit  of  cultivation  almost 
to  their  summits. 

No  State  in  the  Union  shows  to  the  passing  traveller  a  richer  agricul- 
ture than  this.  It  is  emphatically  a  grain  country,  raising  the  greatest 
abundance  of  fine  wheat.  It  produces  all  the  fruits  and  productions  of  the 
northern  and  middle  states,  and  is  particularly  famous  for  the  great  size, 
strength,  and  excellence  of  its  breed  of  draught  horses. 

This  State  spreads  a  wide  surface  in  the  Ohio  valley,  and  is  rapidly  ad- 
vancing in  wealth  and  population.  New  towns  and  villages  are  springing 
up  in  every  direction.  It  abounds  in  all  the  elements  of  wealth  and  power. 
Public  opinion  has  given  it  a  strong  impulse  towards  manufactures,  and  a 
gigantic  system  of  internal  improvements.  Its  inhabitants,  though  com- 
posed of  all  nations,  are  distinguished  for  their  habits  of  order,  industry, 
and  frugality.  The  passing  stranger,  as  he  traverses  the  State,  is  struck 
with  the  noble  roads  and  public  works,  with  the  well  cultivated  farms,  and 
their  commodious  and  imperishable  stone  houses,  and  often  still  larger  stone 
barns.  An  agricultural  country  alike  charming  and  rich  spreads  under 
his  eye.

DELAWARE. 

THE  first  European  settlers  in  the  territory,  now  constituting  the  State 
of  Delaware,  were  Swedes  and  Fins,  a  colony  of  whom  was  formed  un- 
der the  auspices  of  the  celebrated  Gustavus  Adolphus,  king  of  Sweden.  In 
1627,  the  first  emigrants  landed  at  Cape  Henlopen,  which  they  named 
Point  Paradise,  and  to  the  country  on  both  sides  of  the  Delaware  river,  they 
applied  the  title  of  New  Sweden.  Hoarkill,  now  Lewistown,  was  founded 
in  1630,  and  other  settlements  were  shortly  afterwards  established  near 
Wilmington,  at  Upland,  now  Chester,  and  at  Tinicum,  in  Pennsylvania. 
In  1655,  the  Swedish  settlements  fell  under  the  authority  of  the  Dutch, 
who  united  them  to  their  colony  of  New  Amsterdam,  under  the  title  of  the 
New  Netherlands.  Nine  years  afterwards,  the  whole  was  conquered  by 
the  English,  and  granted  by  Charles  II.  to  his  brother  James,  Duke  of  York, 
who,  in  1682,  conveyed  the  Delaware  settlements  to  Wm.  Penn.  At  that 
period,  Delaware  was  as  at  present  divided  into  three  counties,  and  from 
that  time  to  the  American  revolution  was  known  as  the  three  lower  coun- 
ties upon  the  Delaware.  In  1775,  Richard  Penn,  then  proprietor  of  Penn- 
sylvania, resigned  his  jurisdiction  over  the  lower  counties,  and  in  the  fol- 
lowing year,  1776,  the  dominion  of  Great  Britain  having  been  abolished, 
a  convention  of  representatives,  chosen  for  the  purpose,  formed  a  constitu- 
tion, and  the  territory  taking  the  name  of  Delaware,  became  a  free  and 
independent  State.  In  the  revolutionary  war,  she  labored  and  suffered 
greatly ;  no  part  of  the  continent  contributed  better  troops,  or  was  more 
steadfast  in  the  common  cause  than  this  little  State.  The  Delaware  regi- 
ment was  distinguished  for  its  bravery  and  efficiency  among  the  regular 
forces.  This  State  was  the  first  to  ratify  and  adopt  the  Federal  Constitution. 
Subsequent  to  that  period,  the  noiseless  tenor  of  its  history  is  sufficient 
proof  of  the  advantages  it  has  derived  from  the  Union,  and  its  own  political 
administration.  The  only  event  of  importance  in  its  recent  annals,  is  the 
forming  of  a  new  Constitution,  which  took  place  in  1792.  The  name  of 
this  State,  the  bay,  and  river,  was  derived  from  Lord  De  la  War,  one  of  the 
early  settlers  of  Virginia.

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


The  general  aspect  of  Delaware  is  that  of  an  extended  plain,  mostly! 
favorable  for  cultivation. 

On  the  table-land  forming  the  dividing  ridge  between  the  Delaware  and 
Chesapeake  Bays,  is  a  chain  of  swamps,  from  which  the  waters  descend 
in  one  direction  to  Chesapeake,  and  on  the  other  to  Delaware  Bay.  The 
upper  part  of  the  State  is  generally  a  fine  tract  of  country,  and  well  adapted  j 
to  the  growing  of  wheat,  and  other  grains.  The  staple  commodity,  how- 
ever, is  wheat,  which  is  produced  of  a  superior  quality.  The  flour  is  highly 
esteemed  for  its  softness,  and  is  preferred  in  foreign  markets.  Brandywine 
creek,  in  the  upper  part  of  the  State,  furnishes  water-power  for  great  and 
growing  manufacturing  establishments.  The  chief  articles  are  flour,  cot- 
tons, woollens,  paper,  and  gunpowder.  Delaware  contains  but  few  mine- 
rals ;  in  the  county  of  Sussex,  and  among  the  branches  of  the  Nanticoke, 
are  large  quantities  of  bog  iron  ore,  well  adapted  for  casting ;  but  it  is  not 
wrought  to  any  extent.  This  State  has  a  school  fund  of  $170,000.  There 
are  academies  at  Wilmington,  New  Castle,  Newark,  Smyrna,  Dover,  Mil- 
ford,  Lewistown,  and  Georgetown.  Schools  are  established  in  every  dis- 
trict of  4  miles  square.  No  district  is  entitled  to  any  share  of  the  fund 
that  will  not  raise  by  taxation  a  sum  equal  to  its  share  of  the  income  of  the 
fund.  The  boundaries  on  the  north  are  Pennsylvania,  on  the  south  Mary- 
land, on  the  east  Delaware  Bay  and  the  Atlantic  Ocean,  and  on  the  west 
Pennsylvania  and  Maryland. 

The  extent  from  north  to  south  is  90  miles  ;  from  east  to  west  25  miles ; 
area  in  square  miles,  2,120,  or  1,356,800  acres.  The  principal  streams, 
besides  the  Delaware,  which  forms  a  part  of  its  boundary,  are  Brandywine 
creek,  Christiana  creek,  Duck  creek,  Mispillion  creek,  and  Indian,  Chop- 
tank,  and  Nanticoke  rivers.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

CANALS. 

Chesapeake  and  Delaware  Canal  is  partly  in  the  state  of  Delaware 
and  partly  in  Maryland,  connecting  Delaware  river  with  Chesapeake  bay. 
Length,  13f  miles;  breadth  at  the  surface,  66  feet;  depth,  10  feet,  being 
designed  for  sloop  navigation.  It  leaves  Delaware  river  45  miles  below 
Philadelphia,  passes  across  the  peninsula,  and  communicates  with  Chesa- 
peake Bay  at  Back  creek.  It  has  two  tide  and  two  lift  locks,  100  feet  by 


DELAWARE.

22  feet  in  the  chamber.  The  summit-level  is  12  feet  above  tide- water.  At 
the  eastern  termination  of  the  canal,  at  Delaware  City,  a  harbor  extends 
500  feet  along  the  shore,  from  which  two  piers,  that  distance  apart,  project 
250  feet  into  the  river,  nearly  opposite  Fort  Delaware.  Commenced  in 
1824 ;  opened  for  navigation  in  1829.  Cost,  $2,200,000. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

Newcastle  and  Frenchtown  Rail-road  is  nearly  parallel  to  the  Chesa- 
peake and  Delaware  Canal,  and  is  in  direct  competition  with  it.  It  extends 
from  Newcastle  on  Delaware  river  to  Frenchtown,  in  the  state  of  Mary- 
land, affording  communication  between  Delaware  river  and  Chesapeake 
Bay.  It  consists  of  a  single  track  with  the  requisite  number  of  turn-outs, 
and  is  about  16|  miles  in  length — only  853  yards  longer  than  a  perfectly 
straight  line  drawn  between  its  two  extremities.  It  consists  of  6  curve  and 
6  straight  lines.  The  curve  lines  vary  in  length  from  1,939  to  8,296  feet. 
The  radii  of  the  three  smaller  curves  are  of  10,560  feet  each  ;  the  radius 
of  the  largest,  20,000  feet.  The  aggregate  length  of  the  curves  is  5.16 
miles;  that  of  the  straight  lines,  11.3  miles.  The  graduation  of  the  road 
departs  from  a  perfect  level  by  ascents  and  descents  varying  from  10  feet 
6  inches  to  16  feet  4  inches  a  mile ;  at  one  place,  for  about  4,000  feet,  the 
slope  is  at  the  rate  of  29  feet  to  the  mile.  The  whole  amount  of  excava- 
tion is  about  500,000  cubic  yards  of  earth,  exclusive  of  the  side  drains. 
The  amount  of  embankment  420,000  cubic  yards.  The  road  crosses  4 
viaducts  and  29  culverts,  all  constructed  of  substantial  stone  masonry. 
Width,  26  feet,  exclusive  of  the  side  drains.  Completed  in  1832.  Cost, 
including  land,  wharf,  depots,  and  locomotive  engines,  $400,000. 

Wilmington  and  Downingtown  Rail-road. — Company  incorporated  in 
1831.  Capital,  $100,000,  with  liberty  to  increase  it  to  $150,000.  Rail- 
road  to  extend  from  Wilmington  to  the  boundary  line  of  the  State,  in  the 
direction  of  Downingtown,  Penn.

MARYLAND. 

The  territory  now  forming  the  State  of  Maryland  was  granted  by 
Charles  I.  to  George  Calvert,  Lord  Baltimore,  an  eminent  statesman  who 
had  been  Secretary  to  James  I.  The  first  settlement  was  formed  by  his  son, 
Leonard  Calvert,  together  with  about  200  Catholic  emigrants,  most  of 
whom  were  persons  of  property.  They  located  themselves  on  the  north  side 


250  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


of  the  Potomac  river,  at  an  Indian  town  called  Piscataway.  The  country 
granted  to  Lord  Baltimore  was  called  Maryland,  in  honor  of  Henrietta 
Maria,  the  Queen  of  England.  The  principles  upon  which  the  settlement 
of  this  colony  was  established  were  alike  honorable  to  the  humanity  anc 
wisdom  of  the  founder.  They  were  similar  to  those  adopted  by  Roger 
Williams,  in  the  planting  of  Rhode  Island,  and  subsequently  by  Wm.  Penn 
on  a  larger  scale  in  the  settlement  of  Pennsylvania.  They  advanced  the 
prosperity  and  population  of  Maryland  at  a  rapid  pace,  and  have  left  imper- 
ishable brilliancy  on  the  character  of  Lord  Baltimore.  The  colony  wa 
an  asylum  for  the  persecuted  of  religious  sects,  from  all  parts  of  the  world, 
which  circumstance,  with  the  hospitality  of  the  natives,  the  fruitfulness  of 
the  soil,  and  mildness  of  the  climate,  tended  greatly  to  its  early  growth  and 
prosperity. 

In  1699  the  seat  of  government  was  fixed  at  Annapolis,  where  it  ha: 
ever  since  remained.  From  the  restoration  of  Charles  II.  until  the  revolu- 
tion of  1668  the  government  continued  in  the  proprietor,  but  upon  that 
event  taking  place  it  was  wrested  from  him  by  the  Protestant  Association 
in  arms,  and  tendered  to  William  and  Mary,  by  whom  it  was  accepted,  and 
it  continued  a  royal  province  until  1716.  The  descendant  of  the  proprie- 
tor renouncing  the  Catholic  faith,  the  government  was  restored  to  him, 
and  continued  in  the  proprietary  family  until  the  revolution  which  estab- 
lished the  independence  of  the  United  States. 

The  people  of  Maryland  were  not  backward  in  supporting  the  cause  of 
t  freedom.  The  spirit  which  was  first  roused  in  1765,  and  which  blazed 
forth  in  1776,  displayed  itself  on  both  occasions  in  that  province,  during 
the  revolutionary  war ;  and  especially  in  the  southern  campaigns  under 
Gen.  Green,  the  bravery  and  good  conduct  of  the  Maryland  line  were  con- 
spicuous. In  1788  the  convention  of  this  State  adopted  the  federal  con- 
stitution, by  a  large  majority.  Two  years  after,  the  State  ceded  to  the 
general  government  that  part  of  the  District  of  Columbia  which  lies  east 
of  the  Potomac  river,  for  the  seat  of  the  national  legislature.  In  the  last 
war  with  Great  Britain,  the  maritime  parts  of  this  State  were  subjected  to 
a  marauding  warfare,  as  harassing  and  vexatious  to  the  people,  as  it  was 
dishonorable  to  the  enemy ;  in  his  last  attempt  on  Baltimore,  made  with  a 
considerable  force,  towards  the  close  of  the  contest,  he  was  forced  to  retreat 
to  his  ships  with  considerable  loss,  and  entirely  disappointed  in  his  views. 

Maryland  is  bounded  north  by  Pennsylvania  and  Delaware ;  east  by 
Delaware  and  the  Atlantic ;  south-west  and  west  by  Virginia.  Length 
196  miles,  and  120  miles  in  breadth  ;  area  in  square  miles  10,950,  in  acres 
7,008,000.  The  principal  rivers  are  the  Potomac,  which  divides  it  from 
Virginia,  the  Susquehanna,  Patapsco,  Pawtuxent,  Elk,  Sassafras,  Chester, 
Choptank,  Nanticoke,  and  Pocomoke.  The  maritime  part  of  this  State  is 
penetrated  far  into  the  interior  by  Chesapeake  Bay,  as  a  vast  river  dividing 
it  into  two  distinct  portions,  called  the  eastern  and  western  shores.  These 
shores  include  a  level,  low,  and  alluvial  country,  intersected  by  tide-water 
rivers  and  creeks,  and  like  the  same  tracts  of  country  farther  south  are 
subject  to  intermittents.  The  genuine  white  wheat,  which  is  supposed  to 
be  peculiar  to  this  State,  is  raised  on  these  shores.  Above  the  tide-waters, 
the  land  becomes  agreeably  undulating.  Beyond  this  commences  the 
Allegheny  mountain,  with  its  numerous  ridges :  the  valleys  between  them 
are  of  a  loamy  and  rich  soil,  yielding  fine  wheat  and  all  the  productions  of

the  middle,  together  with  some  of  those  of  the  southern  States.  The 
national  road  passes  through  the  wide  and  fertile  valleys  in  which  Frederick 
and  Hagerstown  are  situated,  being  broad  belts  of  the  same  admirable  soil 
which  is  seen  in  Lancaster  county,  Pennsylvania.  Among  these  moun- 
tains and  hills  the  air  is  elastic,  the  climate  salubrious,  and  the  waters  clear 
and  transparent. 

In  manufactures  and  commerce,  Maryland  sustains  a  very  respectable 
rank  ;  numerous  woollen  and  cotton  mills,  copper  and  iron  rolling  mills  are 
established  in  and  near  Baltimore,  and  are  also  scattered  over  other  parts 
of  the  State.  Flour  and  tobacco  are  the  staple  productions :  the  exports 
of  the  former  are  very  great,  and  of  the  latter  the  product  is  considerable 
and  of  excellent  quality.  The  imports  into  Maryland  in  1831  were 
$4,826,577,  and  the  exports  of  domestic  articles  for  the  same  period 
$3,720,506,  of  foreign  produce  $578,141  ;  total,  $4,308,647. 

The  great  Baltimore  and  Ohio  Rail-road  now  in  progress  in  this  State 
is  by  far  the  most  stupendous  national  work  of  the  kind  ever  undertaken 
in  this  or  any  other  country.  The  entire  distance  will  exceed  300  miles  ; 
on  this  road  every  mode  of  passage,  by  horse  car  power  and  locomotive 
steam  car  power,  and  wind  power  by  sails,  has  been  adopted.  The  route 
of  this  great  undertaking  is  through  a  country  abounding  in  every  variety 
of  splendid  scenery  that  mountains,  valleys,  cascades,  rivers,  forests,  and 
the  wildness  of  nature  in  her  mountainous  retreats,  can  furnish.  Various 
other  works  of  the  same  kind  are  in  contemplation.  When  these  shall  be 
completed,  Maryland  will  probably  come  in  for  her  full  share  of  the  trade 
of  the  west.

252  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


posed  length  341  ^  miles  ;  to  extend  from  tide-water  of  the  Potomac  river 
above  Georgetown,  in  the  District  of  Columbia,  and  terminate  near  Pitts- 
burg,  Pennsylvania.  Breadth  at  the  surface  of  the  water,  from  60  to  80 
feet ;  at  the  bottom,  50  feet ;  depth  from  6  to  7  feet.  The  first  2  miles 
of  this  canal  above  Georgetown  are  70  feet  wide  on  the  surface,  and  7  feet 
deep ;  the  next  2  miles  are  80  feet  wide,  and  6  feet  deep.  The  remaining 
distance  to  the  Point  of  Rocks,  (44  miles)  60  feet  wide  and  6  deep.  Five 
miles  from  Georgetown  the  canal  is  planned  for  constructing  branches 
severally  to  Alexandria,  Baltimore,  and  to  the  navy-yard  at  Washington. 
The  locks  are  to  be  of  stone,  100  feet  by  15.  Amount  of  lockage  required 
on  the  whole  canal,  3,215  feet.  At  the  summit-level,  upon  the  Allegheny 
Mountain,  a  tunnel  is  required  4  miles  and  80  yards  long,  with  a  deep  cut 
1,060  yards  long  at  the  western  end,  and  another  14  yards  long  at  the 
eastern  end,  each  of  which  opens  into  a  basin  of  880  yards  in  length  and 
64  in  width.  The  original  estimate  of  the  cost  was  $22,375,000  ;  but  it 
is  supposed  that  it  will  fall  much  short  of  that  sum.  $1,000,000  of  the 
stock  have  been  subscribed  by  the  United  States. 

Port  Deposit  Canal  is  a  public  work  of  the  State  of  Maryland.  Its 
length  is  10  miles,  extending  from  Port  Deposit  on  the  east  bank  of  the 
Susquehanna,  along  a  line  of  rapids,  northward,  to  the  boundary  of  Ma- 
ryland. 

Potomac  river  Canals. — At  Little  or  Lower  Falls,  three  miles  above 
Washington,  is  a  canal  2£  miles  long.  Difference  of  level  37  feet  and  1 
inch,  overcome  by  4  locks  of  solid  masonry. 

At  Great  Falls,  9  miles  above,  is  a  canal  1 ,200  yards  long,  lined  with 
walls  of  stone.  Difference  of  level,  76f  feet  surmounted  by  five  locks, 
100  feet  long,  and  from  10  to  14  wide. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

Baltimore  and  Ohio  Rail-road. — Company  incorporated  in  1827,  by 
the  legislatures  of  Maryland,  Virginia,  and  Pennsylvania.  The  ceremony 
of  laying  the  first  stone  was  performed  July  4,  1828;  but  active  opera- 
tions were  not  commenced  till  the  autumn  of  the  same  year.  Capital, 
$5,000,000.  This  rail-road,  when  completed,  is  to  extend  from  Baltimore 
to  Pittsburg,  Pennsylvania,  or  to  some  other  point  on  the  Ohio  river,  thus 
affording  communication  between  the  waters  of  Chesapeake  Bay  and  those 
of  the  Ohio.  Seventy-three  miles  of  this  rail-road  are  to  be  completed  in 
the  course  of  the  autumn  of  1832,  from  Baltimore  to  the  Point  of  Rocks 
on  Potomac  river,  including  a  branch  rail-road  to  Frederick. 

Length  of  the  main  stem  from  the  Depot  of  the  Company  in  Pratt-street, 

Baltimore,  to  the  Point  of  Rocks,  double  track, 67£  m. 

From  the  Depot  to  the  City  Block, 2    m. 

Branch  from  the  main  stem  to  Frederick,  single  track, . . . . , 34  m. 

Total,  73i 

Average  cost  of  a  single  track, $15,500  a  mile. 

Total  cost  of  a  single  track, $1,101,615 

Average  cost  of  a  double  track, $27,128  a  mile. 

Total  cost  of  a  double  track, $1,906,853 

The  breadth  of  the  tracks  is  4  feet  9£  inches  between  the  rails. 
From  January  1,  to  September  30,  1831,  the  number  of  passengers  on 
the  portion  of  the  rail-road  from  Baltimore  to  Ellicott's  Mills  (13  miles) 


MARYLAND. 


was  81,905  ;  and  within  the  same  period  5,931  tons  were  transported  upon 
it,  yielding  an  income  of  $31,405,  and  involving  an  expense  of  $10,994 
Transportation  is  effected  by  horses  and  steam  locomotive  engines. 

The  progress  of  the  rail-road  beyond  the  Point  of  Rocks  has  been  inter- 
rupted by  a  law-suit  between  the  Baltimore  and  Ohio  Rail-road  Company 
and  the  Chesapeake  and^Ohio  Canal  Company,  which  has  been  decided  in 
favor  of  the  latter.  Measures  are  now  in  progress  for  the  extension  of 
the  rail-road  to  the  mouth  of  the  Shenandoah.  A  further  extension  of  30 
miles  will  carry  it  to  Williamsport,  and  another  of  75  miles,  to  Cumber- 
land, and  a  country  abounding  in  rich  bituminous  coal.  From  this  point 
to  Pittsburg  the  distance  is  140  miles,  making  the  whole  length  325  miles. 

Upon  the  route  selected  for  this  rail-road  there  are  only  two  summits  for 
the  distance  of  180  miles.  The  approach  to  the  first  of  these  summits,  at 
Parr  Spring  Ridge,  is  by  an  acclivity  so  gradual  as  not  to  exceed  18  feet  to 
the  mile.  From  the  western  side  of  this  ridge,  to  the  coal  mines  near 
Cumberland,  the  route  for  the  whole  distance,  is  adapted  to  steam  locomo- 
tive engines.  From  the  eastern  base  of  the  Alleghany  mountain,  a  serie 
of  inclined  planes  will  be  required  to  overcome  a  summit  of  1200  feet ; 
from  thence  the  road  may  be  constructed  upon  a  line  so  nearly  level  to  the 
Ohio  river,  as  to  be  traversed  by  steam  locomotive  engines  without  diffi- 
culty. 

Baltimore  and  Susquehanna  Rail-road. — Commenced  in  1830.  To 
extend  from  Baltimore  to  York,  Pennsylvania.  Length,  76  miles.  The 
portion  of  the  rail-road  lying  in  Maryland,  is  in  active  progress.  Seven 
miles,  commencing  at  Baltimore,  have  already  been  completed  at  the  expense 
of  $13,350  a  mile.  The  next  division  of  8  miles,  is  now  under  contract. 
When  completed,  it  is  supposed  the  cost  of  the  rail-road  will  be  reduced  to 
$11,000  a  mile.  As  the  Act  of  the  legislature  of  Maryland  incorporating 
the  Baltimore  and  Susquehanna  Rail-road  Company  has  not  been  concurred 
in  by  the  legislature  of  Pennsylvania,  the  rail-road,  at  present,  will  termi- 
nate at  the  boundary  line  of  the  State  of  Maryland.  The  company  is 
authorized  to  construct  a  lateral  rail-road,  commencing  at  the  main  stem, 
within  ten  miles  of  Baltimore,  through  Westminster  to  the  head  waters  of 
Monocacy « river. 

Baltimore  and  Washington  Rail-road  is  a  branch  of  the  Baltimore  and 
Ohio  Rail-road,  and  has  been  undertaken  by  the  same  company.  The 
route  has  been  surveyed..  Length  from  the  point  of  intersection  at  Elk- 
ridge  landing  to  Washington,  about  33  miles. 

A  rail-road  has  been  projected  from  Baltimore  to  Annapolis.

DISTRICT  OF  COLUMBIA. 

THE  District  of  Columbia  is  a  tract  of  country  ten  miles  square,  situated 
on  both  sides  of  the  Potomac  river,  120  miles  from  its  mouth,  and  290  miles 
from  the  Atlantic  Ocean.  It  contains  Washington  county,  lying  on  the 
north-east  or  Maryland  side  of  the  river,  in  which  are  Washington  City  anc 
Georgetown.  Alexandria  county  is  on  the  Virginia  or  south-east  bank  of  the 
Potomac,  and  in  it  is  located  the  city  of  Alexandria.  The  District  was  cedec 
to  the  United  States  in  1790,  by  the  States  of  Maryland  and  Virginia,  anc 
in  1800  it  became  the  seat  of  the  general  government  of  the  United  States. 
It  is  subject  to  the  immediate  and  exclusive  legislation  of  Congress,  yet 
the  laws  of  the  two  states  from  which  it  was  taken  remain  in  force  in  the 
respective  parts  taken  from  each.  The  City  of  Washington  is  the  capita 
of  the  United  States ;  it  is  the  residence  of  the  President,  and  the  other 
chief  executive  officers  of  the  national  government. 

The  buildings  belonging  to  the  United  States  are:  1st.  The  Capitol,  a 
large  and  massy  building  of  the  Corinthian  order,  situated  near  the  west- 
ern extremity  of  the  Capitol  square,  73  feet  above  tide ;  it  is  of  freestone,  com-

The  wings  were  nearly  completed,  when  the  British  army,  under  Gene- 
ral Ross,  (who  was  afterwards  slain  in  battle  near  Baltimore,)  in  August, 
1814,  made  a  sudden  incursion,  after  defeating  the  American  troops  at 
Bladensburg,  gained  possession  of  the  city,  setting  fire  to  the  Capitol,  Presi- 
dent's House,  Public  Office,  &c.,  unconnected  with  the  operations  of  war, 
reducing  the  whole  to  ashes,  together  with  the  valuable  library  of  Congress. 
The  foundation  of  the  north  wing  was  laid  in  the  presence  of  General 
Washington,  on  the  16th  Sept.  1798,  and  that  of  the  centre  on  the  24th 
of  May,  1818,  being  the  anniversary  of  its  destruction  by  the  British.  The 
building  covers  one  and  a  half  acres,  and  1820  square  feet,  exclusive  of  its 
circular  inclosure  for  fuel,  and  elegant  area  and  glacier  on  the  west  front. 
The  square  contains  22^  acres,  embracing  a  circumference  of  f  of  a  mile 
and  185  feet,  inclosed  by  a  substantial  iron  railing,  with  very  neat  gate- 
ways, gravel-walks,  and  a  beautiful  bordering  of  shrubbery  and  flowers, 
forming  a  delightful  promenade  for  the  use  of  the  citizens.  Opposite  to  the 
west  front  is  the  botanic  garden  ground,  well  adapted  for  the  purpose  in- 
tended ;  it  is  under  the  care  of  the  Columbian  Institute.  At  the  west  front 
of  the  Capitol  is  placed  the  beautiful  marble  monument  (which  lately  stood 
in  the  Navy- Yard)  erected  by  the  American  officers  to  the  memory  of  their 
brethren  who  fell  before  Tripoli  in  the  year  1804.

VIRGINIA. 

THE  name  of  Virginia,  though  now  properly  belonging  to  only  one  of 
the  States  of  the  American  Union,  was  originally  given  to  the  whole  extent 
of  country,  afterwards  divided  into  thirteen  colonies.  It  was  bestowed  (in 
honor  of  Queen  Elizabeth)  by  Sir  Walter  Raleigh,  upon  that  part  of  North 
America  which  he  attempted  to  colonize. 


VIRGINIA,  257 


Virginia  was  \hefirst  anglo- American  colony,  and  the  first  germ  of  a 
mighty  nation. 

James  I.  in  1606,  granted  to  two  Companies,  the  London  and  Plymouth, 
all  that  part  of  the  American  coast  from  N.  latitude  34°  to  45°,  under  the 
names  of  North  and  South  Virginia.  The  latter  effected  an  actual  settle- 
ment on  the  Powhatan,  now  James  river,  and  there  commenced  the  United 
States.  The  early  advance  was  very  slow,  the  colony  being  regarded  with 
indifference  in  England.  In  1619,  the  first  Legislature  was  convened — 
an  advantage  more  than  counterbalanced  the  ensuing  year,  by  the  introduc- 
tion of  the  first  African  slaves. 

As  an  English  Colony,  Virginia  was  royal  in  its  political  features  and 
feelings.  In  the  long  revolutionary  struggle,  from  1642  to  1660,  the  peo- 
ple sided  with  the  royal  party.  The  revolution  of  1688  extended  its  effects 
into  every  section  of  British  domination,  in  which  Virginia  shared  its  bene- 
fits. For  a  considerable  period  she  enjoyed  great  internal  tranquillity,  and 
experienced  nothing  to  interrupt  her  growth.  ' 

In  the  year  1732,  she  gave  birth  to  the  most  illustrious  of  her  sons ;  the 
great  statesman  and  patriot  who  was  destined  afterwards  to  achieve  the 
independence  of  all  the  colonies.  In  the  colonial  war  of  1755,  Virginia 
was  truly  distinguished.  In  that  of  the  American  revolution,  she  was,  in 
many  respects,  the  leading  State ;  and  the  illustrious  Washington  was  only 
one  of  many  of  her  sons  who  shone  in  that  day  of  events.  Since  the 
peace  of  1783,  she  has  retained  an  elevated  rank  in  the  family  of  States. 
Fruitful  of  illustrious  men,  she  has  given  four  Presidents  to  the  Union. 
During  the  late  war  with  Great  Britain,  her  citizens  displayed  great  patriot- 
ism in  opposing  the  common  enemy ;  and  her  maritime  frontier  suffered 
severely  from  his  predatory  incursions. 

The  distinguishing  national  traits  of  the  Virginians  are  frankness,  gene- 
rosity, decision,  and  unshrinking  perseverance.  Nature  has  bestowed  on 
Virginia  advantage  of  position,  soil,  climate,  and  navigable  rivers.  She  is 
often  distinguishad  by  the  title  of  the  Ancient  Dominion,  probably  from  the 
circumstance  of  her  having  been  the  first  settled  of  the  colonies. 

This  State  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Maryland,  Pennsylvania,  and 
Ohio;  south  by  North  Carolina  and  Tennessee;  east  by  Maryland  and  the 
Atlantic  Ocean,  and  on  the  west  by  Kentucky  and  Ohio.  Extent  from  north 
to  south,  220  miles ;  from  east  to  west,  370  miles.  Area,  about  64,000 
square  miles,  or  40,960,000  acres. 

The  principal  rivers  are  the  Potomac,  Shenandoah,  James,  Rappahan- 
nock,  Mattapony,  Pamunky,  York,  Rivannah,  Appomattox,  Elizabeth,  Not- 
toway,  Meherrin,  Staunton,  Ohio,  Sandy,  Great  Kanawha,  Little  Kanawha, 
and  the  Monongahela,  and  its  principal  branches.  The  Alleghany  range 
of  mountains,  with  its  numerous  ridges,  covers  the  whole  middle  section  of 
this  State,  and  gives  it  a  rugged  surface.  The  country  east  of  the  moun- 
tains descends  gradually  to  the  flat  and  sandy  alluvion  of  the  coast.  The 
district  west  of  the  mountains  is  hilly.  The  soil  varies  greatly,  being  sandy 
and  sterile  on  the  coast,  very  fertile  on  the  banks  of  rivers,  and  productive 
in  the  valleys  of  the  Alleghanies.  The  climate  is  equally  varied,  being  hot, 
moist,  and  unhealthy  in  the  lower  alluvial  country,  and  cool  and  salubrious 
among  the  mountains.  To  the  productions  common  to  the  northern  and 
middle  sections  of  the  Union,  this  State  adds  the  sweet  potato,  the  finest 
tobacco,  and  in  the  southern  parts  cotton  as  a  crop.  The  productions  of 

W2

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


the  north  and  the  south,  apples  and  wheat,  cotton  and  tobacco,  meet  here 
as  in  Tennessee  in  the  western  country.  The  temperature,  soil,  and  cir- 
cumstances are  supposed  to  be  favorable  in  the  highest  degree  to  the  culti- 
vation of  the  grape  and  the  silk  mulberry.  The  principal  minerals  founc 
are  iron,  coal,  limestone,  and  also  some  copper  and  black  lead.  Gold  ha 
been  lately  found  in  considerable  quantities.  The  belt  of  country  in  which 
this  metal  exists,  extends  through  Spottsylvania,  and  some  neighboring 
counties,  in  a  south-west  direction,  into  North  and  South  Carolina,  Georgia, 
and  Alabama.  In  this  State  the  gold  is  diffused  over  large  surfaces,  and 
has  not  been  found  sufficiently  in  mass,  except  in  a  few  places,  to  make 
mining  profitable.  The  United  States'  Mining  Company  in  Spottsylvania 
county,  about  10  miles  above  Fredericksburg,  are  at  present  working  mine: 
which  promise  to  yield  a  handsome  remuneration.  The  gold  is  here  found 
embedded  in  quartz,  containing  from  ten  to  forty  per  cent,  in  weight  of 
native  metal,  and  so  pure  as  to  rise  as  high  as  twenty-three  to  twenty-three 
and  a  half  carats. 

The  number  of  cotton  manufactories  in  1832  was  seven,  with  an  aggre- 
gate capital  of  $290,000,  making  annually  675,000  yards  of  cloth. 

This  State  has  a  Bank  Capital  of  $5,607,000,  and  a  Literary  Fund  of 
$1,233,523;  $45,000  of  which  is  annually  appropriated  to  the  education 
of  the  poor.  There  is  also  a  fund  devoted  to  internal  improvements,  of 
$2,100,591 ;  the  whole  capital  employed  in  which  is  about  85  millions. 
The  amount  of  imports  in  1831  was  $488,522  ;  exports,  $4,150,475;  of 
which  $4,149,986  was  domestic,  and  $489  foreign  produce.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

CANALS. 

Dismal  Swamp  Canal  connects  the  Chesapeake  Bay  with  Albemarle 
Sound.  It  passes  over  the  Dismal  Swamp  from  Elizabeth  to  Pasquotank 
river;  length,  23  miles  ;  rises  only  165  feet  above  the  level  of  the  Atlantic; 
it  is  40  feet  wide  at  the  surface,  and  has  a  depth  of  65  feet.  It  receives 
the  wa'ters  of  a  feeder  from  Lake  Drummond  of  4^  feet  depth  and  5  miles 
in  length.  This  work  has  cost  directly  or  indirectly  about  8800,000. 

James  and  Jackson  River  Canal  and  Navigation. — James  river  admits 
vessels  of  125  tons  to  Rockett's,  the  port  of  Richmond.  At  that  city  com- 
mence the  falls  or  rapids,  to  pass  which  a  series  of  short  canals  have  been 
constructed.  The  Richmond  canal  enters  a  basin  in  the  western  side  of 
the  city ;  it  is  25  feet  wide,  and  3  deep,  extends  2£  miles  to  where  it  enters 
the  river;  there  are  12  locks,  and  the  fall  is  80  feet.  Three  miles  above 
the  first  is  a  second  short  canal,  with  three  locks  overcoming  34  feet  fall. 
These  canals  and  locks,  with  other  slight  improvements,  opened  a  naviga- 
tion at  all  seasons  of  12  inches  water  to  Lynchburg.  The  James  River 
Company  in  1825,  Dec.  10th,  declared  a  canal  navigation  complete  to  the 
head  of  the  falls,  called  Maiden's  Adventure  Goochland  County,  30£

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


miles  above  Richmond.  Width  of  canal,  40  feet ;  depth  of  water,  3£  feet ; 
fall  overcome,  140^  feet,  and  cost  $623,295.  There  is  also  a  canal  on 
James  river,  around  Irish  falls,  7  miles  in  length,  and  96  feet  lockage.  Cost, 
$340,000.  The  above  works  may  be  considered  as  the  commencement  of 
a  series  of  improvements  for  the  purpose  of  connecting  the  waters  of  James 
river  with  those  of  the  Great  Kanawha,  and  when  completed  will  afford  the 
shortest  and  most  direct  line  of  communication  from  the  Ohio  river  to  the  At- 
lantic Ocean.  To  improve  the  channels  of  the  Roanoke  and  its  confluents, 
companies  have  been  formed  in  both  North  Carolina  and  Virginia.  Sloops 
ascend  the  Roanoke  to  Weldon,  above  Halifax,  and  the  Chovvan  to  Winton. 
By  a  report  of  the  Virginia  Roanoke  Company,  Dec.  1828,  it  appeared  that 
the  improvements  had  been  such  as  to  admit  steamboat  navigation  to  Salem, 
in  Bottetourt  county,  west  of  the  Blue  Ridge,  overcoming  upwards  of  900 
feet  fall  in  244  miles,  following  the  river  channel.  Danville  navigation  was 
also  (1828)  so  greatly  improved,  as  to  admit,  by  a  mixed  series  of  locks, 
sluices,  and  side-cuts,  a  regular  navigation  into  Rockingham  county,  N.  C. 
at  the  village  of  Leaksville,  152  miles,  following  the  bends  of  the  river. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

The  Petersburg  and  Roanoke  Rail-road  commences  at  Petersburg,  and 
extends  60  miles  a  little  west  of  south  to  Weldon,  in  North  Carolina,  and 
to  the  foot  of  the  falls  in  Roanoke  river.  The  line  is  very  direct,  gradua- 
tion in  no  place  exceeding  30  feet  per  mile.  This  road  being  in  the  direct 
line  of  the  principal  southern  travelling,  will  no  doubt  become  a  most  im- 
portant link  of  communication,  and  derive  great  emolument  from  the  trans- 
portation of  travellers  and  merchandise. 

The  Manchester  Rail-road  extends  from  Manchester  (opposite  to  Rich- 
mond) nearly  a  due  west  course  to  the  coal  mines.  Single  track,  length  13 
miles. 

The  Portsmouth  and  RoanoTte  Rail-road  is  to  extend  from  Portsmouth 
(opposite  to  Norfolk)  to  Weldon,  N.  C. ;  length,  about  80  miles.  The  fol- 
lowing Rail-roads  are  projected,  and  some  of  them  will  probably  be  com- 
menced shortly  :  From  Richmond  to  the  Potomac  river,  at  or  near  the  mouth 
of  Potomac  creek,  a  distance  of  about  65  miles.  From  Harper's  Ferry  to 
Winchester,  27  miles  ;  from  Richmond  to  Lynchburg ;  from  Lynchburg  to 
Knoxville ;  and  from  Lynchburg  to  New  River.

NORTH  CAROLINA. 

In  North  Carolina,  the  first  attempt  by  the  English  at  colonization  in 
America,  was  made.  This  country  originally  formed  part  of  that  exten- 
sive region  which  by  the  French  was  named  Florida,  and  by  the  English 
Virginia,  and  included  in  the  patent  granted  in  1584  to  Sir  Walter  Raleigh, 
by  Queen  Elizabeth.  Under  the  auspices  of  that  nobleman,  a  small  num- 
ber of  adventurers  were  landed  in  1586,  who  were  probably  cut  off  by 
the  natives,  as  no  trace  of  their  existence  could  afterwards  be  obtained. 
Two  or  three  other  attempts  were  at  different  times  made  to  establish  colo- 
nies, which,  however,  proved  abortive.  About  the  year  1650,  some  emi- 
grants from  Virginia  made  the  first  actual  settlement  of  whites,  and  in 
1661,  a  second  English  colony  from  Massachusetts  reached  and  settled 
themselves  on  Cape  Fear  river.  After  many  vexatious  struggles,  the 
infant  colony  obtained,  in  1667,  a  representative  government.  But  two 
years  afterwards,  it  was  thrown  into  confusion  by  an  attempt  to  introduce 
the  fanciful  constitution,  so  famous  under  the  name  of  Locke's  scheme  of 
government.  This  wild  project  was  soon  abandoned,  and  like  most  of  the 
other  English  colonies,  the  advance  of  Carolina  was  slow,  and  its  history 
rendered  horribly  memorable,  by  a  most  destructive  savage  war  in  1712. 
Previous  to  1717,  Carolina  had  been  a  proprietary  government,  but  after 


NORTH  CAROLINA.  263 


that  period  if  was  brought  under  the  control  of  the  crown,  and  so  continued 
to  the  revolution,  which  separated  the  Carolinas,  with  the  other  American 
colonies,  from  Great  Britain.  In  1720  the  colony  of  Carolina  was  found 
too  unwieldy  for  convenient  government,  and  was  separated  into  two  dis- 
tinct governments,  under  the  relative  names  of  North  Carolina  and  South 
Carolina.  In  1775,  an  insurrection  took  place  of  the  inhabitants  of  the 
western  counties,  who  styled  themselves  "  Regulators,"  and  complaining 
of  oppressions  practised  in  the  administration  of  justice,  professed  a  desire 
to  regulate  these  matters  by  destroying  the  lawyers.  With  this  charitable 
view,  they,  organized  themselves  into  a  body  of  1500  men,  but  Governor 
Tryon  marched  against  them  with  a  force  of  about  1000  militia,  and  totally 
defeated  them ;  three  hundred  were  killed,  and  the  rest  sued  for  mercy. 
Soon  after  this  period  the  contest  with  the  mother  country  commenced,  and 
although  this  colony  had  suffered  perhaps  less  than  any  other  from  British 
misgovernment,  the  majority  of  the  inhabitants  joined  heartily  with  their 
brethren  of  the  other  colonies,  in  opposition  to  the  schemes  of  the  ministry, 
and  afterwards  in  the  declaration  of  independence.  During  the  war  of  the 
revolution,  North  Carolina  was  for  a  considerable  time  the  theatre  of  hos- 
tilities, in  which  much  blood  was  spilt,  and  where  some  of  the  most  bril- 
liant achievements  of  the  contest  were  performed.  The  battle  of  Moor's 
Creek  bridge,  King's  Mountain,  and  Guilford  Court-House,  will  remain  in 
history  imperishable  memorials  of  the  bravery  and  patriotism  of  its  inhab- 
itants. Since  the  peace  of  1783,  her  progress  has  been  so  tranquil  as  to 
afford  but  few  materials  for  remark.  North  Carolina  is  bounded  on  the 
north  by  Virginia,  east  by  the  Atlantic  Ocean,  south  by  South  Carolina, 
and  west  by  Tennessee.  Length  362  miles,  and  breadth  121  miles  ;  area, 
43,800  square  miles,  or  28,032,000  acres.  The  country,  for  more  than 
60  miles  from  the  coast,  is  a  low  plain,  with  many  swamps  and  inlets  from 
the  sea.  The  greater  portion  of  this  district,  except  along  the  water- 
courses, is  a  vast  forest  of  evergreens.  The  rich  lands  near  the  swamps 
and  rivers  are  insalubrious.  Having  passed  this  monotonous  region,  we 
emerge  to  the  pleasant  and  midland  parts  of  the  State,  at  the  base  of  the 
Alleghanies,  from  whose  summits  the  eye  traverses  an  immense  extent  of 
beautiful  country  to  the  west,  and  vision  is  lost  in  the  agreeable  succession 
of  hill,  dale,  forest,  and  valley,  with  an  elastic  and  salubrious  atmosphere. 
The  soil  of  North  Carolina  resembles  that  of  Virginia  :  in  the  level  parts  it 
is  generally  poor,  in  the  hilly  country  more  fertile,  and  the  productions  are 
much  the  same  as  in  the  more  northern  States.  Wheat,  rye,  barley,  oats, 
and  flax,  are  cultivated ;  Indian  corn  is  abundant  throughout  the  whole 
State,  and  cotton  is  raised  in  considerable  quantities ;  tobacco,  rice,  and 
sweet  potatoes,  abound,  and  the  soil  and  climate  are  favorable  to  the  growth 
of  the  grape  and  mulberry.  From  their  pines,  the  people  extract  tar, 
pitch,  and  turpentine. 

The  expoits  consist  of  cotton,  tobacco,  lumber  in  vast  quantities,  tar, 
pitch,  turpentine,  &c.  &c.  They  amounted  in  1831,  to  $341,140.  This 
does  not,  however,  present  a  fair  estimate  of  exports,  compared  with  that 
of  the  other  States,  as  a  large  portion  is  shipped  from  Charleston.  The 
gold  mines  of  North  Carolina  have  lately  excited  much  interest,  and  with 
those  of  the  other  southern  States,  are  becoming  an  object  of  national 
importance.  The  number  of  persons  engaged  in  mining  operations  in  the 
whole  of  the  gold  district,  is  estimated  at  upwards  of  20,000 ;  the  weekly

product  of  all  the  mines  is  supposed  to  be  $100,000,  or  about  5  millions 
of  dollars  annually  ;  but  a  small  proportion  of  this,  however,  is  sent  to  the 
United  States'  mint,  or  remains  in  the  country  :  the  greater  part  is  exported 
to  Europe,  particularly  to  Paris.     In  this  State,  the  gold  mines  are  princi- 
pally in  the  counties  of  Burke,  Rutherford,  Mecklenburg,  Rowan,  David- 
son, and  Cabarras  ;  in  almost  any  part  of  this  district,  gold  may  be  found 
in  greater  or  less  abundance  mixed  with  the  soil.     It  exists  .in  grains  or 
masses  from  almost  imperceptible  particles,  to  pieces  of  one  or  two  pounds 
weight  ;  one  of  the  largest   lumps  ever  found,  was  dug  up  in  Cabarras 
county  —  it  was  worth  between  7  and  8000  dollars.    Lumps  from  the  value 
of  1  or  200  to  1000  dollars,  are  not  uncommon.     There  are  innumerable 
diggings  over  the  whole  country,  and  a  host  of  adventurers,  relinquishing 
all  other  employments,  are  digging  the  hill-sides  for  gold.     The  opening 
of  the  mines  indubitably  proves  that  they  were  known  in  past  ages  ;  cru- 
cibles and  other  mining  instruments  have  been  repeatedly  discovered  under 
circumstances  to  preclude  the  possibility  of  their  having  been  left  there  by 
descendants  of  the  European  races.    This  region  is  believed  to  be  more 
abundant  in  gold  than  any  other  on  the  globe.     The  inhabitants  of  this 
State,  in  general,  have  a  marked  character  for  sobriety  and  morality,  and 
a  sturdiness  of  independence  ;  they  are  endeavoring  to  remedy  past  neglect 
of  common  schools,  by  fostering  private  seminaries  and  Sunday-schools.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 
CANALS. 

Dismal  Swamp  Canal.    (See  Virginia.) 

The  North-west  Canal  connects  North-west  river  (which  empties  into 
Currituck  sound)  with  the  Dismal  Swamp  Canal.  Length,  6  miles  ;  width, 
24  feet ;  depth  of  water,  4  feet. 

Weldon  Canal,  constructed  by  the  Roanoke  Navigation  Company, 
extends  around  the  falls  of  the  Roanoke,  near  Weldon,  in  Halifax  county. 
By  this  canal  a  communication  is  established  with  the  valleys  of  the  rivers 
Dan  and  Staunton.  Length,  12  miles,  in  which  distance  the  river  falls 
100  feet. 

Chubfoot  and  Harlow  Canal  opens  a  communication  for  small  craft, 
between  Newbern  and  Beaufort.  The  average  depth  of  water  is  four 
feet. 

Other  canal  companies,  viz.  the  Cape  Fear,  the  Yadkin,  the  Tar  River, 
the  New  River,  and  the  Catawba,  have  done  much  to  improve  the  inland 
navigation  of  the  State. 

KAIL-ROADS. 

Fayetteville  Rail-road. — A  company  was  incorporated  in  1831,  for  the 
purpose  of  constructing  a  rail-road  from  Fayetteville  to  Cape  Fear  river. 
Capital,  $20,000. 

Cape  Fear  and  Yadkin  Rail-road. — Company  incorporated  in  1832. 
Capita],  $2,000,000,  to  be  divided  into  shares  of  $100  each.  This  rail- 
road is  to  commence  at  Wilmington,  and  extend  to  the  Yadkin  river,  by  the 
way  of  Fayetteville ;  thence  by  the  way  of  Salisbury  to  Beatty's  Ford,  or 
to  such  other  point  of  junction  on  the  Catawba  river,  as  may  be  found 
practicable.  Distance  from  230  to  250  miles.  The  work  must  be  com- 
menced within  three  years,  and  completed  within  thirteen,  under  penalty 
of  forfeiture  of  the  charter.  The  State  has  reserved  to  itself  the  right  of 
connecting  with  this,  other  rail-roads,  leading  to  any  other  part  or  parts  of 
the  State. 

Central  Rail-road. — Company  incorporated  in  1832.  Capital,  two  mil- 
lions of  dollars.  This  rail-road,  like  that  above  described,  is  intended  to 
connect  the  western  part  of  the  State  with  the  sea-board. 

The  Petersburg  Rail-road  is  to  extend  into  this  State  to  Weldon.  The 
Portsmouth  and  Roanoke  Rail-road  is  to  connect  Norfolk,  Virginia,  and 
Weldon.  (See  Virginia.)

SOUTH  CAROLINA.  267 


SOUTH  CAROLINA. 

Nearly  two  centuries  elapsed  from  the  discovery  of  the  coast  of  Caro- 
lina, before  any  permanent  settlement  was  effected.  The  germ  of  the 
population  of  South  Carolina,  was  first  planted  at  or  near  Port  Royal,  in 
1670,  by  a  few  emigrants  from  England,  under  the  direction  of  Wm. 
Sayle,  the  first  governor  of  the  province.  Dissatisfied  with  the  situation, 
they  removed  in  1671  to  the  western  bank  of  the  Ashley  river,  and  there 
laid  the  foundation  of  Charleston.  The  site  was  injudiciously  chosen,  for 
it  could  not  be  approached  by  large  vessels,  and  it  was  in  consequence 
abandoned.  A  second  removal  took  place  to  Oyster  Point,  a  spot  at  the 
confluence  of  the  Ashley  and  Cooper  rivers,  where  the  foundation  of 
Charleston  was  laid. 

In  1662,  Charles  II.  granted  the  whole  of  what  is  now  both  Carolinas 
to  Lord  Clarendon  and  others,  which,  with  Locke's  imperfect  plan  of  govern- 
ment, retarded  the  settlement  of  the  country  until  1720,  when  the  two 
Carolinas  were  definitely  separated.  Amid  political  contests,  a  most  salu- 
tary addition  to  the  products  of  the  soil  was  made  by  the  introduction  of 
rice,  in  1695.  Indigo  and  cotton  were  subsequently  introduced,  and  laid 
the  foundation  of  the  wealth  and  independence  of  South  Carolina.  Though 
her  frontier  felt  the  frequent  and  severe  wounds  inflicted  by  savage  warfare, 
her  advancement  in  population  and  prosperity  was  steady  until  the  war 
of  the  revolution.  In  that  contest  South  Carolina  was  an  illustrious  actor 
and  sufferer :  on  her  soil,  several  general  actions  of  great  importance  to  the 
public  cause  were  fought,  and  much  individual  bravery  and  patriotism  was 
exhibited.  The  battle  of  the  Cowpens,  and  Eutaw  Springs,  may  vie  with 
any  in  the  revolutionary  contest,  for  the  skill  and  courage  of  the  troops, 
while  the  names  of  Marion,  Sumter,  and  Lee,  will  occupy  a  prominent 
place  in  the  history  of  their  country.  The  distinguishing  virtues  of  the 
Carolinians  are  hospitality  to  strangers,  and  charity  to  the  indigent  and 
distressed.  The  planters,  who  in  general  have  large  incomes,  live  in  a 
luxurious  and  splendid  style,  devoting  much  of  their  time  to  the  pursuit  of 
pleasure,  and  possessing  much  of  that  pride  and  dignity  of  spirit,  which 
characterize  an  independent  country  gentleman.  This  State  is  bounded  on 
the  north  and  north-east  by  North  Carolina,  south-east  by  the  Atlantic 
Ocean,  and  south-west  by  Georgia,  from  which  it  is  separated  by  the  Sa- 
vannah river;  it  is  in  length  188  miles,  by  160  in  breadth,  the  area  being 
about  30,000  square  miles,  or  19,251,200  acres.  The  principal  rivers  are 
the  Waccamaw,  Pedee,  Black  river,  Santee,  Cooper,  Ashley,  Stono,  Edisto, 
Ashapoo,  Combahee,  Coosaw,  Broad,  and  Savannah. 

The  sea-coast  is  bordered  with  a  fine  chain  of  islands,  between  which 
and  the  shore,  there  is  a  very  convenient  navigation.  The  main  land  is 
by  nature  divided  into  the  lower  and  upper  country.  The  low  country 
extends  80  or  100  miles  from  the  coast,  and  is  covered  with  extensive 
forests  of  pitch-pine,  called  pine  barrens,  interspersed  with  swamps  and 
|  marshes  of  a  rich  soil :  beyond  this  is  the  sand-hill  region,  60  miles  in 
width,  the  sterile  hills  of  which  have  been  compared  to  the  arrested  waves 
of  the  sea  in  a  storm.  To  this  distance  the  broad  extent  of  country  is 
denominated  the  lower  country ;  beyond  it  we  approach  the  ridge  or  upper 
country,  the  Atlantic  ascent  of  which  is  precipitous.  From  the  summit 
stretches  a  fine  belt  of  table-land,  fertile  and  well  cultivated,  watered  by

rivers,  and  irrigated  by  smaller  streams,  extending  from  the  Savannah  ti 
Broad  river.  The  country  beyond  the  ridge,  resembles  in  its  scenery  tin 
most  interesting  of  the  northern  States.  The  traveller  is  gratified  by  th 
pleasant  alternation  of  hill  and  dale,  the  lively  verdure  of  the  hills  is  con 
trasted  with  the  deeper  tints  of  the  extensive  forests  which  decorate  thei 
sides,  and  in  the  valleys  broad  rivers  roll  their  streams  through  the  variec 
beauties  of  luxuriant  and  cultivated  fields.  The  ascent  hence  to  the  moun 
tains  is  gradual  and  imperceptible.  A  number  of  mountains  of  striking 
forms,  here  swell  with  their  peaks  to  a  very  considerable  elevation.  Tabl< 
Mountain  is  the  most  conspicuous ;  its  summit  is  supposed  to  be  4000  fee 
above  the  level  of  the  sea. 

The  planters  divide  their  soil  into  several  classes,  with  distinctive  names 
as  the  tide  swamp,  which  yields  a  sea-island  cotton,  of  nearly  double  th 
value  of  the  upland  kinds  ;  inland  swamp,  river  swamp,  oak  and  hickory 
land,  and  pine  barren.    The  oak  and  hickory  land  is  favorable  to  indigo 
and  cotton.     The  pine  barren,  though  the  least  fertile  of  all,  is  overhung 
by  an  atmosphere  so  much  more  salubrious,  that  much  of  it  is  cultivated 
and  a  sufficient  portion  for  the  planter  to  erect  his  habitation  upon,  is 
deemed  an  important  appendage  to  every  swamp  plantation.     So  various 
is  the  climate,  that  the  plants  of  Canada  may  be  found  on  its  mountains 
and  on  its  southern  declivities  the  harder  tropical  fruits. 

The  staple  commodities  of  this  State  are  cotton  and  rice,  of  which  grea; 
quantities  are  annually  exported.  These  articles  have  so  engrossed  the 
attention  of  the  planters,  that  the  culture  of  wheat,  barley,  oats,  and  other 
crops  equally  useful,  but  less  profitable,  have  been  almost  wholly  neglected 
So  little  wheat  is  raised  throughout  the  State,  that  considerable  quantities 
are  annually  imported.  Cotton  was  not  raised  to  any  considerable  amount 
till  as  late  as  1795.  Before  that  period,  indigo  was,  next  to  rice,  the  most 
important  article  of  produce ;  but  it  is  now  neglected.  Tobacco  thrive; 
well.  The  exports  in  1831  amounted  to  $6,575,20*1,  and  the  imports  to 
$1,238,163.  The  fruits  which  flourish  best  are  pears,  pomegranates,  anc 
water-melons ;  the  latter,  in  particular,  grow  to  an  enormous  size,  and  are 
superior  perhaps  to  any  in  the  world.  The  other  fruits  are  figs,  apricots, 
nectarines,  apples,  peaches,  olives,  almonds,  and  oranges. 

The  low  country  is  infested  with  many  of  the  diseases  which  spring 
from  a  warm,  moist,  and  unelastic  atmosphere.  Of  these,  the  most  fre- 
quent are  fevers,  from  which  the  inhabitants  suffer  more  than  from  any,  or 
perhaps  from  all  other  diseases  together.  The  districts  of  the  upper  coun- 
:ry  enjoy  as  salubrious  a  climate  as  any  part  of  the  United  States.  Dur- 
ng  the.  most  unhealthful  period  of  the  year,  it  is  customary  for  the  wealthy 
South  Carolinians  to  seek  relaxation  in  a  tour  through  the  northern  States, 
or  in  a  sojourn  at  some  of  the  watering  places  in  the  upland  country. 

The  region  in  which  gold  is  found  extends  through  this  State.  Although 
he  mines  are  abundant,  the  diggings  have  been  less  numerous  than  in  North 
Carolina.  Various  ochres,  used  in  painting,  are  found  near  Yorkville. 
Vlarble,  limestone,  iron  and  lead  ore,  potters'  clay,  fullers'  earth,  nitrous 
;arth,  talc,  and  most  of  the  useful  fossils,  are  common.  The  principal 
iterary  institutions  of  this  State  are  the  College  of  South  Carolina,  at 
Columbia,  and  Charleston  College,  in  Charleston.  The  legislature  makes 
an  annual  appropriation  of  about  $40,000  for  the  support  of  free  schools, 
f  which  there  were  in  1828,  840,  with  9,036  scholars.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

CANALS. 

Santee  Canal. — This  canal  was  completed  in  1802.  Length  22  miles, 
extending  from  the  Santee  to  Cooper's  river.  Width  at  the  surface  of  the 
water,  32  feet,  at  bottom,  20  ;  depth  4  feet.  From  the  Santee,  the  ground 
rises  35  feet  to  the  summit-level,  which  is  overcome  by  4  locks.  Towards 
Cooper's  river  the  descent  is  68  feet,  overcome  by  nine  locks.  The  locks 
are  60  feet  long  by  10  wide.  Cost  $650,667.  This  enterprise  is  said  to 
have  proved  disastrous  to  those  engaged  in  it.  By  means  of  Dreln  and 
Lorick's  Canals,  Saluda  and  Broad  rivers,  and  Saluda  and  Columbia 
Canals,  navigation  is  continued  from  the  Santee  river  to  Columbia. 

Winyaw  Canal  unites  the  Santee  river  with  Winyaw  bay.  Length  10 
miles. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

The  Charleston  and  Hamburg  Rail-road,  extending  from  the  city  of 
Charleston  to  Hamburg,  on  Savannah  river,  opposite  to  Augusta,  is  now 
far  advanced  in  its  construction.  The  whole  length  of  the  rail-road,  when 
completed,  will  be  about  135  miles.  It  is  expected  that  it  will  be  entirely 
finished  early  in  1833 ;  and  there  are  now  several  locomotive  cars  employed 
upon  it  for  the  conveyance  of  passengers,  and  produce  of  various  kinds. 
The  mail,  for  Columbia,  is  conveyed  on  the  rail-road,  over  the  first  15 
miles  from  Charleston.  The  entire  cost  of  its  construction  is  estimated  at 
$700,000.  It  is  constructed  of  wood,  with  tracks  of  iron,  and  is  intended 
for  steam  locomotive  engines.  This  rail-road  was  undertaken  by  the  South

270 


Carolina  Canal  and  Rail-road  Company,  aided  by  the  State.  A  second 
rail-road  of  about  the  same  length,  extending  from  Charleston  to  Columbia, 
is  embraced  among  the  objects  of  the  company.

GEORGIA. 

OF  the  thirteen  provinces  which  declared  themselves  independent  in  1776, 
Georgia  was  the  last  settled.  The  country  lying  within  its  present  bounda- 
ries, was,  previous  to  the  year  1733,  a  wilderness,  and  though  compre- 
hended within  the  charter  of  Carolina,  had  been  claimed  by  Spain  as  well 
as  England.  The  sufferings  of  the  English  poor,  from  the  existing  state 
of  trade  and  industry,  led  to  the  first  attempt  at  settlement  in  Georgia.  A 
company  was  formed  for  the  purpose  of  assisting  such  as  might  be  disposed 
to  emigrate  in  search  of  means  of  subsistence.  To  this  company  George 
II.  by  patent,  dated  in  1732,  granted  the  territory  which  in  compliment  to 
him  was  called  Georgia.  In  November  of  that  year,  160  persons  em- 
barked under  the  direction  of  General  James  Oglethorpe,  and  arrived  at 
Charleston  in  January  1733.  In  the  following  spring,  the  foundation  of 
Savannah  was  laid.  Here  the  settlement  commenced,  but  from  the  injudi- 
cious system  of  the  trustees,  and  perhaps  the  character  of  the  settlers  them- 
selves, the  advance  of  this  colony  was  exceedingly  slow.  In  1752,  the 


GEORGIA.  271 

charter  was  surrendered  by  the  trustees  to  the  crown,  and  the  same  privi- 
leges and  regulations  with  regard  to  trade  and  commerce,  that  prevailed  in 
the  other  colonies,  was  extended  to  Georgia.  A  general  Representative 
Assembly  was  established  in  1755,  and  was,  in  1763,  followed  by  a  cession 
of  all  the  country,  between  the  Alatahama  and  St.  Mary's  rivers.  The 
latter  grant  was  one  of  the  meliorating  consequences  to  Georgia,  of  the 
cession  of  Florida  by  Spain  to  Great  Britain.  From  this  epoch  Georgia 
prospered,  though  vexed  and  retarded  by  Indian  warfare.  At  the  com- 
mencement of  the  American  revolution,  she  was  only  in  the  infancy  of  her 
strength,  and  had  just  begun  to  enjoy  some  of  the  blessings  of  peace,  and 
the  advantages  of  a  better  sytem  of  government.  Her  inhabitants  had  never 
experienced  the  evils  which  the  tyrannical  administration  of  the  Stuarts  had 
inflicted  on  the  elder  provinces,  and  knew  the  operation  of  the  royal  gov- 
ernment only  by  its  favorable  contrast  with  that  of  the  trustees.  Notwith- 
standing these  motives  for  continuing  in  connexion  with  Great  Britain,  the 
people  of  this  province  did  not  hesitate  to  take  part  with  their  northern 
brethren.  In  March,  1775,  they  appointed  a  delegate  to  Congress,  and  in 
July  of  the  same  year  a  convention  of  delegates  assembled,  by  whom  the 
sanction  of  the  province  was  given  to  the  measures  of  Congress.  During 
the  war  which  ensued,  Georgia  was  overrun  by  the  British  troops,  and  the 
principal  inhabitants  were  compelled  to  abandon  their  possessions,  and  fly 
into  the  neighboring  States.  In  proportion  to  their  numbers,  the  exertions 
and  losses  of  her  citizens  were  as  great  as  in  any  of  the  other  States. 
Georgia,  in  the  early  period  of  her  existence,  was  slow  in  her  progress. 
She  has  latterly  had,  in  many  respects,  an  advance  similar  to  those  States 
and  territories  which  have  been  formed  since  the  revolutionary  war ;  and 
such  is  her  progress  at  present,  that  in  population  and  wealth  she  is  rapidly 
graining  upon  the  more  ancient  of  the  Atlantic  States.  No  one  of  the  original 
colonies,  Virginia  alone  excepted,  ceded  to  the  United  States  so  much  char- 
tered territory.  By  different  conventions,  the  whole  of  the  States  of  Ala- 
bama and  Mississippi  north  of  lat.  31°,  or  about  100,000  square  miles,  have 
been  yielded  to  the  general  government. 

This  State  is  bounded  north  by  Tennessee  and  North  Carolina,  north- 
east by  South  Carolina,  and  south-east  by  the  Atlantic  Ocean,  south  by 
Florida,  and  west  by  Alabama.  Length,  300  miles ;  breadth,  200  ;  area, 
58,000  square  miles,  or  39,120,000  acres.  The  principal  rivers  of  Georgia 
are  the  Savannah,  (which  forms  the  boundary  between  it  and  South  Caro- 
lina,) Alatamaha,  Ogeechee,  Satilla,  Ockmulgee,  Oconee,  St.  Mary's,  Flint, 
Chattahoochee,  Tallapoosa,  and  Coosa.  The  coast  of  Georgia,  for  four  or 
five  miles  inland,  is  a  salt  marsh,  mostly  uninhabited.  In  front  of  this,  to- 
wards the  sea,  there  is  a  chain  of  islands  of  a  gray,  rich  soil,  covered  in 
their  natural  state  with  pine,  hickory,  and  live-oak,  and  yielding  on  cultiva- 
tion the  finest  quality  of  sea-island  cotton.  The  principal  are  Wassaw, 
Ossabaw,  St.  Catherine,  Sapelo,  St.  Simon's,  Jekyl,  and  Cumberland.  Be- 
yond the  swamps  which  line  the  coast,  commences  that  extensive  range  of 
pine-barrens  closely  resembling  those  of  South  Carolina ;  above  this  range 
the  country  begins  to  be  pleasantly^diversified  by  gentle  undulations.  This 
region  is  bounded  on  the  west  by  th'e  Blue-ridge,  which  here  swell  into  ele- 
vations 1500  feet  in  height,  which  thence  subside,  and  are  lost  in  the  sea. 
Beyond  the  mountains  is  an  extensive  and  rich  table-country,  with  a  black 
soil  of  great  fertility. 


272 


GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


The  great  staple  of  this  State  is  cotton,  of  both  the  black  seed  and  sea- 
island  kinds.  Rice  is  the  next  principal  product.  Great  extents  of  rice- 
swamps  are  sowed  with  this  grain.  Sugar-cane  is  cultivated  on  experiment, 
and  indigo  is  beginning  to  constitute  a  considerable  item  in  the  products. 
Silk  and  wine  are  also  made  on  experiment.  The  fruits  are  melons,  in  the 
greatest  perfection,  figs,  in  abundance,  oranges,  pomegranates,  olives,  lem- 
ons, citrons,  pears,  peaches,  and  grapes.  The  exports,  consisting  chiefly 
of  cotton,  rice,  deer-skins,  and  lumber,  amounted,  in  1831,  to  $3,959,813, 
and  the  imports  to  $399,940.  The  minerals  are  iron  ore,  in  great  abun- 
dance, and  also  copper.  The  gold  region  extends  in  a  broad  belt  through 
this  State.  The  discoveries  of  this  metal  have  been  numerous  and  produc- 
tive in  the  late  Cherokee  country,  on  the  head  waters  of  the  Chattahoochee, 
Coosa,  and  Tallapoosa  rivers. 

The  climate  of  Georgia  differs  but  little  from  that  of  South  Carolina. 
The  low-country  planters  have  their  sickly  season  and  summer  retreats  in 
the  high  pine  woods.  The  districts  central  to  the  rice-swamps,  in  the  Caro- 
linas  and  Georgia,  are  universally  insalubrious.  There  are  districts  in  this 
State  that  approach  nearer  to  tropical  temperature  than  any  part  of  South 
Carolina,  and  better  adapted  to  the  sugar-cane,  olive,  and  sweet  orange. 
The  hilly  and  western  parts  are  as  healthy  as  any  in  America.  As  an 
average  of  the  temperature,  winter  may  be  said  to  commence  in  the  middle 
of  December,  and  terminate  in  the  middle  of  February.  The  climate  of 
the  low  country  compares  very  nearly  with  that  of  Louisiana. 

This  State  has  a  Bank  Capital  of  $6,882,349,  and  considerable  funds  for 
the  support  of  academies  and  common  schools.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 
CANALS. 

Savannah  and  Ogeechee  Canal. — This  canal  was  constructed  by  the 
Savannah,  Ogeechee,  and  Alatamaha  Company.  The  work  was  com- 
menced in  1825,  and  completed  in  1829.  It  extends  from  the  city  of  Sa- 
vannah to  Ogeechee  river,  16  miles,  uniting  the  waters  of  the  Ogeechee 
with  those  of  the  Savannah.  Width  at  the  bottom,  33  feet ;  depth  of  water, 
5  feet ;  lockage,  29  feet.  The  locks  are  90  feet  long  by  18  wide.  Cost,  as 
estimated,  $162,276;  of  the  stock,  $40,000  were  subscribed  by  the  State 
of  Georgia.  It  is  proposed  to  continue  this  canal  to  the  Alatamaha,  the 
distance  of  60  miles,  with  a  navigable  feeder  of  14  miles.  Estimated  cost, 
$621,156. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

The  Alatamaha  and  Brunswick  Rail-road,  extending  from  the  Alata- 
maha to  Brunswick,  is  about  12  miles  in  length.  Company  incorporated 
in  1831.  Commenced  in  1832. 

Several  important  rail-roads  have  been  projected,  and  companies  organ- 
ized for  their  construction ;  the  principal  of  them  are  as  follows,  viz. 

1.  From  Savannah  to  Macon,  on  the  Ocmulgee  river,  a  distance  of  about 
170  miles. 

2.  From  Macon  to  Forgyth,  upwards  of  20  miles.  This  road  is  intended 
to  connect  with  the  former,  so  as  to  afford  a  continuous  railway  communi- 
cation with  Savannah,  the  whole  distance  being  upwards  of  190  miles. 

3.  From  Augusta  to  Columbus,  on  the  Chattahoochee  river.     This  road 
is  to  be  carried  Ihrough  Milledgeville,  Macon,  &c. ;  lateral  branches  are  to 
be  constructed  to  various  places  on  each  side  of  the  main  trunk ;  the  dis- 
tance between  the  extreme  points  is  about  210  miles. 

4.  From  Augusta  to  Heshman's  Lake,  50  miles.

FLORIDA. 

THE  name  of  Florida  was  imposed  by  the  discoverer,  Juan  Ponce  de 
Leon,  from  having  made  the  coast  on  Pasque  Florida,  (Palm  Sunday,)  in 
1512.  When  first  used,  and  for  a  long  period  afterwards,  the  name  was 
general  in  Spanish  literature,  not  only  for  that  region  to  which  it  is  at  pres- 
ent applied,  but  for  the  whole  Atlantic  coast  of  North  America.  The  flat- 
tering description  given  by  the  discoverer  of  this  territory,  excited  a  dispo- 
sition among  the  European  sovereigns  to  appropriate  it  to  themselves. 
Hence  arose  conflicting  claims,  founded  in  the  first  instance  upon  discovery, 
and  afterwards  upon  conquest  and  possession.  The  first  attempt  to  form  a 
civilized  colony  in  Florida,  was  made  by  the  French,  in  1562,  under  Fran- 
cis Ribault;  but  the  colonists  were,  in  1565,  surprised  and  massacred  by 
the  Spaniards.  This  massacre  was  severely  revenged  by  a  French  expe- 
dition ;  but  the  Spaniards  remained  masters  of  the  country,  and  founded, 
about  the  same  period,  the  city  of  St.  Augustine.  In  1699,  West  Florida 
was  settled,  and  the  city  of  Pensacola  founded.  Though  often  invaded  by 
French  and  English  armaments,  it  remained  a  part  of  Spanish  America 


'•%£      FLORIDA.  275 

until  1763,  when -it  was  ceded  to  Great  Britain.  Soon  after  the  cession, 
the  province  was  divided  into  two  parts,  called  East  and  West  Florida.  The 
river  Appalachicola  being  the  boundary  between  them,  by  a  proclamation 
inviting  settlers  to  the  country,  holding  forth  liberal  inducements,  many 
respectable  persons  were  induced  to  emigrate,  in  consequence  thereof,  from 
the  Carolinas  and  other  British  settlements ;  and  among  other  colonists,  a 
body  of  1500  Greeks,  Italians,  and  Minorcans  were  brought  from  the 
Mediterranean,  and  settled  at  a  spot  about  60  miles  south  of  St.  Augustine, 
where  they  began  the  cultivation  of  indigo  and  the  sugar-cane. 

In  1781,  the  Spanish  Governor  of  Louisiana,  Don  Galvez,  conquered 
West  Florida ;  and  by  the  treaty  of  Paris,  1783,  the  whole  of  both  pro- 
vinces were  ceded  by  Great  Britain  to  Spain. 

A  negotiation,  which  had  been  for  a  long  time  pending  for  the  transfer 
of  the  whole  territory  to  the  United  States,  was  consummated  by  treaty  in 

1819,  and  after  many  vexatious  delays,  was  ratified  by  Spain  in  October, 

1820,  and  immediately  afterwards  Florida  was  taken  possession  of  by  the 
American  authorities,  and  erected  into  a  territorial  government ;  since  which 
period  it  has  continued  to  be  an  integral  portion  of  the  American  Republic. 

Florida  is  bounded  north  by  Alabama  and  Georgia,  from  the  last  of  which 
it  is  separated  in  part  by  the  river  St.  Mary's ;  east  by  the  Atlantic  Ocean ; 
south  and  west  by  the  Gulf  of  Mexico.  Formerly  the  name  of  Florida 
was  applied  to  the  whole  country  east  of  the  Mississippi,  and  bounded  on 
the  north  as  follows  :  By  the  river  St.  Mary's,  from  the  sea  to  its  source ; 
thence  west,  to  the  junction  of  the  Flint  river  with  the  Appalachicola ;  then 
up  the  Appalachicola  to  the  parallel  of  31°  north  latitude;  then  due  west 
along  that  parallel  to  the  Mississippi.  The  river  Appalachicola  divided  this 
country  into  East  and  West  Florida.  The  part  lying  between  the  Missis- 
sippi and  Pearl  river  is  now  included  in  the  State  of  Louisiana ;  the  part 
between  Pearl  river  and  the  Perdido,  belongs  to  the  States  of  Mississippi  and 
Alabama ;  and  the  part  east  of  the  Perdido  is  the  country  that  is  now  called 
Florida.  Its  mean  length,  from  north  to  south,  is  380  miles,  and  the  mean 
breadth  150,  the  area  being  57,750  square  miles,  or  36,960,000  acres. 

The  surface  of  Florida  is  in  general  level,  and  not  much  elevated  above 
the  sea.  It  is  intersected  by  numerous  ponds;  lakes,  and  rivers,  of  which 
the  principal  are  the  St.  John's,  Appalachicola,  Suwanee,  Ocklockony,  Choc- 
tawhatchie,  Escambia,  and  Yellow-Water  rivers.  The  southern  part  of 
the  peninsula  is  a  mere  marsh,  and  terminates  at  Cape  Sable  in  heaps  of 
sharp  rocks,  interspersed  with  a  scattered  growth  of  shrubby  pines.  The 
gulf  stream  setting  along  the  coast  has  here  worn  away  the  land,  forming 
those  islands,  keys  and  rocks,  known  by  the  general  name  of  Martyrs,  and 
by  the  Spaniards  called  cayos,  between  which  and  the  main  land  is  a  navi- 
gable channel.  These  islands  contain  some  settlements  and  many  good 
harbors.  The  eddies  which  set  towards  the  shore  from  the  gulf  stream 
cause  many  shipwrecks  on  this  part  of  the  coast,  furnishing  employment 
to  the  Bahama  wreckers.  The  rivers  and  coasts  of  Florida  yield  a  variety 
of  fish,  among  which  are  the  sheepshead,  mullet,  trout,  and  bass,  and 
abundance  of  shell-fish,  as  oysters,  shrimps,  crabs,  &c.  The  soil  of  Florida 
is  in  some  parts,  especially  on  the  banks  of  the  rivers,  equal  to  any  in  the 
world ;  in  other  parts,  it  is  indifferent ;  and  there  are  large  tracts  which  are 
represented  to  be  of  little  value.  The  country,  however,  has  been  but  im- 
perfectly explored,  and  few  agricultural  experiments  have  been  made.  Much

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


of  the  land,  which,  on  a  superficial  view,  has  been  supposed  to  be  not  worth 
cultivating,  it  is  believed  may  be  turned  to  very  profitable  account.  Owing 
to  its  proximity  to  the  sea  on  both  sides,  this  peninsula  has  a  milder  climate 
than  the  country  to  the  west  of  it,  in  the  same  latitude.  The  productions 
are  corn,  rice,  potatoes,  cotton,  hemp,  olives,  oranges,  and  other  tropical 
fruits,  and  it  is  supposed  that  coffee  and  the  sugar-cane  will  flourish  here. 
The  pine-birrens  produce  grass,  which  supports  an  immense  number  of 
cattle.  TJie  forests  yield  fine  live-oak,  pitch,  tar,  and  turpentine,  and  lum- 
ber has  been  exported  for  nearly  a  century.  The  climate,  from  October 
to  June,  is  generally  salubrious ;  but  the  months  of  July,  August,  and  Sep- 
tember, are  extremely  hot  and  uncomfortable  ;  and  during  this  season,  fevers 
are  prevalent.  At  St.  Augustine,  however,  the  climate  is  delightful,  and 
this  place  is  the  resort  of  invalids. 

The  capes  are  Canuaveral,  Florida,  Sable,  Romans,  and  St.  Bias. 

The  principal  lakes  are  Lake  Macaco  and  Lake  George. 

The  principal  bays  are    Pensacola,  Santa  Rosa,  Appalachie,  Tampa, 
Hillsborough,  Charlotte  Harbor,  and  Chatham  Bay.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

CANALS. 

A  canal  across  the  peninsula  of  Florida,  has  for  some  years  been  con- 
sidered an  object  of  national  importance,  and  would  greatly  facilitate  the 
transmission  of  the  immense  amount  of  produce  and  merchandise,  con 
stantly  passing  and  repassing  between  the  sea-ports  on  the  Gulf  of  Mexico 
and  the  Atlantic  region  of  the  United  States.  It  is  believed  the  loss  to  the 
country  in  vessels  and  merchandise,  occasioned  by  the  dangerous  naviga- 
tion among  the  Bahama  islands,  and  around  the  southern  point  of  Florida, 
has,  in  some  years,  amounted  to  a  sum  sufficient  of  itself  to  pay  the  ex- 
pense of  making  the  proposed  canal.  Several  routes  have  been  surveyed 
by  officers  of  the  United  States'  Engineer  Department ;  the  particular  loca- 
tion, however,  is  as  yet  undecided. 

The  Appalachicola  route  extends  from  St.  Mary's  river,  3  miles  above 
the  town  of  St.  Mary's,  passing  through  Nassau,  Columbia,  and  Hamilton 
counties  in  nearly  a  westerly  direction,  crosses  the  Suwanee  river,  at  the 
mouth  of  the  Withlacoochee,  thence  across  the  Oscilla  river,  and  from 
thence  it  pursues  a  south-west  course  to  Appalachicola  Bay,  opposite  the 
town  of  Appalachicola;  length,  about  250  miles :  its  greatest  altitude,  217 
feet,  is  found  between  the  Ocklockony  and  Oscilla  rivers. 

The  Suwanee  route  commences  at  the  mouth  of  the  Withlacoochee  river, 
thence  parallel  with  the  course  of  the  Suwanee  to  the  Indian  Cowpens ; 


FLORIDA.  ! 

length,  75  miles ;  and  in  connexion  with  the  former,  the  entire  length  tc 
St.  Mary's  river  will  be  about  185  miles. 

The  Santa  Fe  route  commences  at  the  mouth  of  the  Santa  Fe  river 
thence  along  the  course  of  that  stream  to  a  point  15  miles  above  the  Nata 
ral  Bridge :  thence  it  pursues  a  north-east  direction  across  the  territory, 
(passing  about  5  miles  west  of  Jacksonville,  on  the  St.  John's  river,  to  the 
St.  Mary's  river.  Length,  about  120  miles. 

The  St.  John's  route  runs  from  Hillsboro'  Bay,  a  north-east  course  to 
the  head  of  the  Ocklawaha  river,  thence  along  the  course  of  that  stream  to 
Orange  Lake,  from  thence  following  the  direction  of  the  Jacksonville  and 
Tampa  Bay  road,  until  it  intersects  Black  Creek,  then  down  the  valley  of 
that  stream  to  the  St.  John's  river,  thence  across  that  river,  and  in  a  direct 
north-east  course  to  the  mouth  of  Pablo  Creek.  Length,  225  miles. 

It  is  proposed  shortly  to  open  a  communication  between  the  Atlantic  sec 
tion  of  the  Union  and  New  Orleans,  by  a  steam-boat  navigation,  from 
Charleston  or  Savannah,  to  Jacksonville  on  the  St.  John's  river,  thence  by 
a  line  of  stages  across  the  peninsula  to  St.  Mark's,  or  Appalachie  Bay,  and 
from  thence  to  New  Orleans,  by  steam  vessels.  The  distances  from  New 
York  by  this  route,  will  be  about  as  follows :  To  Charleston,  by  steam- 
ship, 800  miles;  to  Jacksonville,  260  by  stages  ;  to  St.  Mark's,  180  ;  and  to 
New  Orleans,  by  steam-boat,  400  miles.  Total,  1,630  miles.  This  can 
probably  be  travelled  in  11  or  12  days,  and  will  afford  a  more  rapid  and 
less  fatiguing  conveyance  than  any  route  now  in  use. 


ALABAMA. 

ALTHOUGH  but  recently  settled,  the  country  forming  this  State  was  proba- 
bly visited  by  Europeans  at  an  early  period ;  in  1539,  Ferdinand  de  Soto, 
governor  of  Cuba,  landed  in  Florida,  with  a  considerable  body  of  men, 
and  led  them  into  the  interior  of  the  country  in  quest  of  gold:  he  appears 
to  have  encountered  many  difficulties,  and  to  have  traversed  a  great  extent 
of  country ;  and  after  experiencing  numerous  romantic  adventures,  he  died 
on  the  banks  of  the  Mississippi,  3  years  after  he  landed.  From  this  period 
a  term  of  170  or  180  years  elapsed,  during  which  time  it  is  not  known  that 
any  attempt  was  made  by  Europeans,  to  penetrate  or  settle  any  part  of 
the  country  immediately  east  of  the  Mississippi  river.  Early  in  tne  eigh- 
teenth century  the  French,  in  forming  the  colony  of  Louisiana,  made 
small  settlements  on  Mobile  river,  and  built  a  fort  where  the  city  of  Mobile 
now  stands ;  but  a  large  share  of  what  is  at  present  Alabama,  remained  in 
possession  of  the  native  Indians  for  about  a  century  after  the  founding  of 
Louisiana.  The  original  charter  of  Georgia  covered  the  whole  region 
from  31°  to  35°  north  latitude.  In  1802,  a  cession  was  made  by  Georgia 
to  the  United  States,  of  all  her  western  territory  between  the  Chattahoo- 
chee  and  Mississippi  rivers.  In  1800,  the  country  which  now  forms  the 
States  of  Mississippi  and  Alabama,  was  erected  into  a  territorial  govern- 
ment under  the  title  of  the  Mississippi  Territory,  which  continued  a  distinct 
section  of  the  Union  until  March  1817,  when  by  act  of  Congress  it  was 
divided  into  two  portions,  the  western  section  assuming  the  title  of  the  State 
of  Mississippi,  and  the  eastern  that  of  the  Territory  of  Alabama.  The 


278  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


increase  of  population  in  the  latter  was  so  rapid  as  to  entitle  it  to  admission 
nto  the  Union  as  a  State  government  in  1818,  and  application  being  made 
;o  Congress,  a  law  was  in  consequence  passed,  empowering  the  people  of  • 
Alabama  to  form  a  constitution,  which  being  ratified  by  the  national  legis- 
lature, -the  State  became  a  member  of  the  Federal  Union.  During  the 
years  1813  and  '14,  the  people  of  this  State  were  exceedingly  harassed 
by  the  incursions  of  hostile  Indians,  principally  Creeks  and  Seminoles. 
Many  flourishing  settlements  were  broken  up,  and  numerous  massacres 
and  savage  murders  perpetrated.  To  repel  the  ruthless  foe,  a  considerable 
force  was  immediately  raised  by  the  State  of  Tennessee,  which,  with  other 
troops,  were  placed  under  the  command  of  Gen.  Jackson,  who,  after  a 
ieries  of  sanguinary  and  obstinately  contested  conflicts,  entirely  broke  the 
power  of  the  savages,  and,  reducing  them  to  total  submission,  the  settle- 
ments in  the  eastern  and  southern  districts  of  the  State  were  freed  from 
those  harassing  inroads  by  which  their  progress  had  been  impeded ;  since 
that  period  the  increase  of  population  and  wealth  here,  has  been  uncom- 
monly rapid,  and  hardly  to  be  paralleled  in  any  section  of  the  Union. 

The  State  of  Alabama  is  bounded  north  by  Tennessee,  east  by  Georgia, 
south  by  Florida,  and  west  by  the  State  of  Mississippi.  Length  280  miles  ; 
breadth  160  miles  ;  area  46,000  square  miles,  or  29,440,000  acres. 

The  principal  rivers  are  the  Alabama,  Tombeckbe,  Black  Warrior, 
Coosa,  Tallapoosa,  Tennessee,  Chatahoochee,  Perdido,  and  Cahawba. 

The  southern  part  of  the  country,  which  borders  on  the  Gulf  of  Mexico 
and  West  Florida,  for  the  space  of  50  miles  wide,  is  low  and  level,  covered 
with  pine,  cypress,  and  loblolly ;  in  the  middle  it  is  hilly,  with  some  tracts 
of  open  land ;  the  northern  part  is  somewhat  broken  and  mountainous, 
and  the  country  generally  is  more  elevated  above  the  sea,  than  most  other 
parts  of  the  United  States  at  equal  distance  from  the  ocean.  The  Alle- 
ghany  mountains  terminate  in  the  north-east  part.  The  forest  trees  in  the 
middle  and  northern  part  consist  of  black  and  white  oak,  hickory,  poplar, 
cedar,  chestnut,  pine,  mulberry,  &c. 

Alabama  possesses  great  diversity  of  soil,  climate,  natural,  vegetable, 
and  mineral  productions.  Occupying  the  valley  of  the  Mobile,  and  its 
tributary  streams,  together  with  .a  fine  body  of  land  on  both  sides  of  the 
Tennessee  river,  its  position  in  an  agricultural  and  commercial  point  of 
view  is  highly  advantageous.  A  considerable  portion  of  that  part  of  the 
State  which  lies  between  the  Alabama  and  Tombeckbe,  of  that  part  watered 
by  the  Coosa  and  Tallapoosa,  and  of  that  on  the  Tennessee,  consists  of 
very  excellent  land.  On  the  margin  of  many  of  the  rivers  there  is  a  con- 
siderable quantity  of  cane-bottom  land,  of  great  fertility,  generally  from  a 
half  to  three  quarters  of  a  mile  wide.  On  the  outside  of  this,  is  a  space 
which  is  low,  wet,  and  intersected  by  stagnant  water.  Next  to  the  river 
swamp,  and  elevated  above  it  ten  or  fifteen  feet,  succeeds  an  extensive  body 
of  level  land  of  a  black,  rich,  soil,  with  a  growth  of  hickory,  black-oak, 
post-oak,  dog-wood,  poplar,  &c.  After  this  come  the  prairies,  which  are 
wide-spreading  plains  of  level,  or  gently  waving  land,  without  timber, 
clothed  with  grass,  herbage,  and  flowers,  and  exhibiting  in  the  month  of 
May  the  most  enchanting  scenery. 

Cotton  is  the  staple  of  the  State.  Other  productions  are  corn,  rice, 
wheat,  rye,  oats,  &c.  The  sugar-cane,  the  vine,  and  the  olive,  it  is  sup- 
posed, may  be  cultivated  with  success.  Coal  abounds  on  the  Cahawba, 


ALABAMA. 


279 


the  Black  Warrior,  &c. ;  and  valuable  iron  ore  is  found  in  some  parts  of 
the  State. 

The  climate  of  the  southern  part  of  the  bottom  land  bordering  on  the 
rivers,  and  of  the  country  bordering  on  the  Muscle  Shoals,  is  unhealthy. 
In  the  elevated  part  of  the  country  the  climate  is  very  fine ;  the  winters 
are  mild,  and  the  summers  pleasant,  being  tempered  by  breezes  from  the 
Gulf  of  Mexico. 

The  University  of  Alabama,  at  Tuscaloosa,  is  a  new  but  well-endowed 
institution.  It  was  incorporated  in  1820,  by  an  act  of  the  State  legislature. 
By  an  act  of  Congress,  March  1819,  one  section  ^of  land,  containing  640 
acres,  was  granted  to  the  inhabitants  of  each  township  for  the  use  of 
schools,  and  72  sections,  or  two  townships,  for  the  support  of  a  seminary 
of  learning.  The  funds  of  the  university  consist  of  the  proceeds  of  these 
lands. 

There  have  been  24  academies  incorporated  in  the  State,  up  to  1832. 

By  an  act  Of  Congress,  March  2,  1819,  it  was  provided  that  5  per  cent, 
of  the  neat  proceeds  of  all  the  sales  of  public  lands  in  this  State,  made 
subsequently  to  September  1,  181 9-,  should  be  reserved  for  making  public 
roads  and  canals,  and  improving  the  navigation  of  rivers.  Three-fifths 
of  the  amount  were  directed  to  be  applied  to  these  objects  within  the  State, 
and  two-fifths  to  the  making  of  a  road  or  roads  leading  to  the  State,  under 
the  direction  of  Congress.  This  act  gave  rise  to  what  is  commonly  called 
the  "  Three  per  cent.  Fund,"  which  has  been  vested  in  the  bank,  of  the 
State  of  Alabama ;  and  it  amounted,  according  to  the  report  of  the  State 
Treasurer,  on  the  26th  of  November,  1829,  to  $96,355  77.  A  board  of 
internal  improvement,  to  consist  of  six  commissioners,  was  established  by 
the  general  assembly  in  January  1830,  under  whose  superintendence  the 
income  of  this  fund  is  to  be  appropriated  to  objects  of  public  utility,  as 
roads,  canals,  &c.  On  the  23d  of  May,  1828,  Congress  made  a  grant  to 
this  State  of  400,000  acres  of  relinquished  and  unappropriated  lands,  for 
improving  the  navigation  of  the  Muscle  Shoals,  and  Colbert  Shoals,  in 
Tennessee,  and  likewise  for  improving  the  navigation  of  the  Coosa,  Ca- 
hawba,  and  Black  Warrior  rivers.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS 
RAIL-ROADS. 

Tennessee  and  Alabama  Rail-road. — Company  incorporated  in  1832. 
Capital,  $3,000,000,  to  be  divided  into  shares  of  $100  each.  It  is  known 
that  a  population  of  at  least  200,000  already  inhabit  the  counties  bordering 
on  the  Upper  Tennessee  and  its  tributaries,  and  that  they  have  no  market, 
or  outlet  for  their  products,  but  the  long,  expensive,  and  almost  imprac- 
ticable route  to  New  Orleans.  The  country  embraces  about  40  counties, 
in  Tennessee,  Virginia,  North  Carolina,  and  Georgia  ;  and  it  is  not  inferior 
in  fertility  to  other  portions  of  the  States  to  which  it  belongs. 

The  Hiwassee  is  a  considerable  stream,  rising  in  the  mountains  of  Geor- 
gia, and,  running  a  north-westerly  course,  discharges  itself  into  the  Ten- 
nessee above  the  Suck.  For  more  than  22  miles  it  is  navigable  for  steam- 
boats at  all  seasons  of  the  year.  Commencing  at  the  head  of  steam-boat 
navigation  on  the  Hiwassee,  it  is  proposed  to  construct  a  rail-road  to  M'Nair', 
boat-yard,  on  the  Connesauga,  an  upper  branch  of  the  Coosa,  distant  16 
miles.  Cost,  estimated  at  $51,000.  From  M'Nair's  boat-yard,  descend- 
ing the  Connesauga  to  New  Echota,  a  good  navigation  for  tow-boats, 
drawing  two  feet  of  water,  may  be  perfected  at  an  expense  of  $8,000. 
Echota  may  be  considered  the  limit  of  steam  navigation.  The  river  then 
takes  the  name  of  the  Oostcnaula,  and,  for  the  space  of  60  miles,  descend- 
ing to  the  head  of  the  Coosa,  every  obstacle  to  an  uninterrupted  navigation 
may  be  removed  for  $5,000.  Thence  to  the  Ten  Islands,  105  miles,  all 
obstructions  may  be  removed  for  $1,000,  making,  in  all,  271  miles  of 
communication  to  be  effected  at  the  expense  of  $65,000.  From  the  Ten 
Islands  to  Selma,  in  Alabama,  the  distance  is  105  miles,  and  it  is  proposed 
to  connect  these  points  by  a  rail-road,  the  estimated  cost  of  which  is 
$735,000.  Making  the  aggregate  distance  from  the  Tennessee  to  Selma, 
on  the  Alabama,  371  miles,  and  to  Mobile  600  miles;  and  the  whole  cost 
of  the  improvements  $800,000. 

The  Tuscumbia  Rail-road,  which  was  begun  in  1831,  was  constructed 
in  order  to  avoid  the  Muscle  Shoals,  and  extends  from  Tuscumbia  to  De- 
catur.  It  consists  of  a  single  track  of  rails,  and  cost  about  $3,500  a 
mile.  ^ 

A  company  has  also  been  incorpor^. '/  to  construct  a  rail -road  from 
Montgomery  to  the  Chattahoochee,  opposite  to  Columbus,  Georgia. 

Another  rail-road  has  been  lately  projected  to  extend  from  Montgomery 
to  West-Point,  on  the  Chattahoochee,  about  40  miles  above  Columbus,  the 
length  of  which  will  be  upwards  of  90  miles.

MISSISSIPPI. 

THE  whole  country  now  included  in  the  States  of  Mississippi  and  Ala- 
bama, was  claimed  by  France  as  a  part  of  Louisiana,  from  their  first  set- 
tlement on  the  shores  of  the  Gulf  of  Mexico.  In  1716,  a  colony  of  French 
established  themselves  among  the  Natchez  Indians,  and  built  a  fort  where 
the  city  of  Natchez  now  stands.  In  1729,  this  colony,  together  with  two 
settlements  on  the  Yazoo  and  Washita  rivers,  amounting  to  about  700  per- 
sons, were,  with  the  exception  of  three  or  four  individuals,  massacred  by 
the  Natchez  and  Chick? «•<••  1<rhite  settlements  were  afterwards  partially 
renewed,  but  the  country  remained  in  great  part  a  wilderness,  until  after 
1763,  when  the  whole  of  the  territory  east  of  the  Mississippi  river,  claimed 
by  France,  was  ceded  to  Great  Britain.  In  the  succeeding  year,  the  latter 
power  took  possession  of  the  posts  within  the  ceded  territory,  and  notwith- 


282  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


standing  the  hostile  spirit  displayed  by  the  natives,  the  English  directed 
their  attention  to  the  country,  and  began  to  settle  about  Natchez.  By  the : 
treaty  of  1783,  Great  Britain  relinquished  the  Floridas  to  Spain  without 
any  specific  boundaries,  and  at  the  same  time  ceded  to  the  United  States 
all  the  country  north  of  the  thirty-first  degree  of  north  latitude.  The  terms 
of  this  cession  opened  an  ample  field  of  dispute  between  the  United  States 
and  Spain,  which  continued  to  agitate  the  two  nations  for  several  years. 
The  Spaniards  retained  possession  of  Natchez,  and  the  posts  north  of  the 
thirty-first  degree,  until  1798,  when  they  finally  abandoned  them  to  the 
United  States.  In  the  year  1800,  the  territory  between  the  river  Missis- 
sippi and  the  western  boundary  of  Georgia,  was  erected  into  a  distinct  territo- 
rial government.  By  treaty  in  1801,  at  Fort  Adams,  the  Choctaw  Indians 
relinquished  to  the  United  States  a  large  tract  of  land ;  and  other  cessions 
have  since  been  made.  On  the  1st  of  March,  1817,  an  act  of  Congress 
was  passed,  authorizing  the  inhabitants  of  the  western  part  of  the  Missis- 
sippi territory  to  form  a  Constitution  and  State  Government,  and  providing 
for  the  admission  of  the  State  thus  formed  into  the  Union.  Accordingly,  a 
convention  met  in  July,  1817,  by  which  a  State  Constitution  was  formed ; 
and  the  provisions  required  by  the  act  of  Congress  having  been  complied 
with,  the  new  State  of  Mississippi  became  a  member  of  the  Confederation 
in  December  following. 

The  State  of  Mississippi  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Tennessee,  east  by 
Alabama,  south  by  the  Gulf  of  Mexico  and  Louisiana,  west  by  Louisiana 
and  Arkansas  territory.  It  is  aboi't  300  miles  in  average  length,  and  160 
in  breadth ;  area,  about  48,000  square  miles,  and  from  about  28  to  3^,000,000 
acres. 

The  principal  rivers  are  the  Mississippi,  Pearl,  Pascagoula,  Yazoo,  Black, 
Tennessee,  and  the  western  branches  of  the  Tombeckbe.  The  Mississippi 
forms  the  western  boundary  from  lat.  31°  to  35°  N. ;  308  miles  in  a  right 
line,  but  by  the  course  of  the  river  near  700  miles. 

The  southern  part  of  the  State,  extending  about  100  miles  north  from 
the  Gulf  of  Mexico,  is  mostly  a  champaign  country,  with  occasional  hills 
of  moderate  elevation,  and  is  covered  with  forests  of  the  long-leaved  pine, 
interspersed  with  cypress  swamps,  open  prairies,  and  inundated  marshes. 
A  considerable  portion  of  this  part  is  susceptible  of  cultivation.  The  soil 
is  generally  sandy,  sometimes  gravelly  and  clayey.  It  is  capable  of  pro- 
ducing cotton,  corn,  indigo,  sugar,  garden  vegetables,  plums,  cherries, 
peaches,  figs,  sour  oranges,  and  grapes. 

In  proceeding  north,  the  face  of  the  country  becomes  more  elevated  and 
agreeably  diversified.  The  growth  of  timber  consists  of  poplar,  hickory, 
oak,  black  walnut,  sugar-maple,  buckeye,  elm,  hackberry,  &c.,  and  the 
soil  is  exceedingly  fertile,  producing  abundant  crop<  of  cotton,  corn,  sweet 
potatoes,  indigo,  garden  vegetables,  and  fruit.  Nearly  all  the  country 
watered  by  the  Yazoo,  is  described  as  incomparably  fertile,  well  watered, 
and  healthful. 

Cotton  is  the  staple  production  of  the  State.  Peaches  and  figs  are  the  fruits 
most  easily  produced.  Apples,  plums,  lemons,  and  oranges,  are  common. 

The  climate  is  temperate,  and  in  the  elevated  parts  generally  healthful. 
The  local  situation  of  this  state,  the  fertility  of  its  soil,  the  temperature  of 
hs  climate,  and  the  value  of  its  productions,  will  doubtless  cause  it  to  re- 
main an  important  part  of  the  Union.

The  Choctaw  and  Chickasaw  Indians  possess  a  large  portion  of  the  ter- 
ritory of  this  State,  embracing  the  northern  and  eastern  parts.  The  tracts 
possessed  by  these  tribes,  comprise  some  of  the  finest  parts  of  the  State, 
abounding  with  extensive  and  beautiful  prairies.  The  Choctaws  and  Chick- 
asaws  have  well  cultivated  fields,  and  great  numbers  of  horses,  cattle,  hogs, 
and  sheep.  Many  of  them  are  mechanics,  and  their  women  spin  and  make 
loth. 

There  are  8  banks  and  branches  in  this  State ;  viz.  3  at  Natchez,  1  at 
Port  Gibson,  2  at  Vicksburg,  1  at  Woodville,  and  1  at  Rodney.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

A  Board  of  Internal  Improvement  was  organized  by  the  Legislature  in 
1829,  consisting  of  the  Governor  and  three  Commissioners.  The  Board 
was  authorized  to  employ  a  civil  engineer,  and  to  negotiate  a  loan  of  the 
sum  of  $200,000  upon  the  credit  of  the  State,  to  be  appropriated  to  the 
improvement  of  the  navigable  streams  and  public  roads  within  the  State. 
By  an  act  of  Congress,  passed  March  1,  1817,  five  per  cent,  of  the  neat 
proceeds  of  the  sales  of  public  lands  within  the  State  were  reserved  for 
making  roads  and  canals ;  and  three-fifths  of  this  (called  the  three  per 
cent,  fund)  are  subject  to  appropriation  by  the  State  Legislature  to  those 
objects  within  the  State  ;  the  other  two-fifths  are  at  the  disposal  of  Con- 
gress for  roads  leading  to  the  State. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

A  Rail-road  is  projected  from  Woodville,  in  this  State,  to  St.  Francis- 
mile,  in  Louisiana.  Three  routes  have  been  surveyed,  and  one  of  them 
selected  for  the  greater  portion  of  the  distance.  Length,  28  miles.  Cost, 
estimated  at  a  little  less  than  $6,000  a  mile. 


The  principal  part  of  the  above  tribes  have  left  the  State,  and  the  remainder  are  expected  to 
remove  in  the  course  of  the  present  season.

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


A  route  for  a  rail-road  has  also  been  surveyed  from  VicTcsburg,  in  War- 
ren county,  to  Clinton,  in.Hindes  county,  the  distance  of  about  55  miles. 
The  books  have  been  opened,  and  a  large  part  of  the  stock  taken.  No 
doubt  is  entertained  of  its  going  into  operation. 

There  is  a  "  Pass,"  from  the  Mississippi  river,  near  St.  Helena,  to  the 
Yazoo  river,  about  100  miles  above  the  mouth  of  the  latter,  which  is  about 
to  be  opened  at  a  comparatively  trivial  expense.  Boats  navigating  the  Mis- 
sissippi, by  taking  this  course,  will  save  about  50  miles ;  but  still  more  will 
be  gained  in  ascending,  as  the  current  of  the  Mississippi  will  be  avoided.

LOUISIANA. 

PREVIOUS  to  the  year  1811,  the  name  of  Louisiana  belonged  to  the  whole 
of  that  vast  and  ill-defined  tract  of  country  which  was  ceded  by  France  to 
the  United  States  in  1803.  On  the  territory  of  Orleans  becoming  a  State, 
it  adopted  the  general  name  for  its  particular  appellation,  and  the  remaining 
portion  of  the  original  Louisiana  has  received  distinct  denominations.  The 
first  settlement  within  the  limits  of  this  State  was  made  by  a  small  French 
colony  in  1699,  under  the  command  of  M.  D'Iberville.  The  city  of  New 
Orleans  was  founded  in  1717.  In  1763  the  whole  of  Louisiana  was  ceded 
to  Spain,  but  from  the  resistance  of  the  inhabitants,  that  power  did  not 
obtain  possession  until  1769.  Spain  retained  her  authority  in  this  province 
until  1800,  when,  by  a  secret  treaty,  it  was  re-ceded  to  France.  The 
renewal  of  the  war  in  Europe,  after  the  peace  of  Amiens,  not  permitting 
France  to  take  possession  of  Louisiana,  it  was  transferred  to  the  United 
States  for  the  sum  of  60  millions  of  francs,  or  about  15  millions  of  dollars, 
in  April,  1803,  and  in  the  following  December,  given  up  to  the  American 
authorities.  By  an  act  of  Congress,  passed  March,  1804,  Louisiana  was 
definitively  subdivided.  The  northern  part,  above  latitude  33°,  was  named 
the  territory  of  Louisiana,  and  the  lower  section,  the  territory  of  Orleans. 
In  1811,  having  acquired  an  adequate  population,  Congress  granted  the 
inhabitants  power  to  form  a  State  constitution.  In  1812,  the  necessary 
steps  having  been  taken,  the  State  of  Louisiana  was  ranked  in  the  list  of 
independent  States  of  the  Union.  A  powerful  British  army  invaded  this 
State,  December,  1814,  but  after  some  partial  actions,  the  enemy  was 
utterly  defeated,  January  8th,  1815,  and  the  country  abandoned  by  them 
shortly  afterwards.  This  event  gave  to"  Louisiana  a  classic  interest  in  the 
history  of  the  United  States,  and  left  her  to  the  peaceable  pursuits  of  the 
arts  of  social  life,  and  the  cultivation  of  her  soil. 


LOUISIANA.  285 


The  purchase  of  Louisiana,  although  vehemently  censured  at  the  time, 
by  the  party  opposed  to  Mr.  Jefferson,  is  now  admitted  on  all  hands  to  have 
been  an  act  of  great  political  wisdom.  It  closed  up  a  broad  source  of  con- 
troversy with  foreign  powers,  added  an  almost  boundless  tract  of  fertile 
country  to  our  territory,  and  extended  the  duration  of  the  Union,  by  gain- 
ing for  the  western  States  the  great  natural  outlet  for  their  productions. 

This  State  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Arkansas  territory  and  the  State 
of  Mississippi ;  on  the  east  by  the  same  State ;  on  the  south  by  the  Gulf 
of  Mexico;  and  on  .the  west  by  the  Mexican  dominions.  The  33d  degree 
of  north  latitude  is  the  northern  boundary,  west  of  the  Mississippi  river, 
and  the  31st  degree  on  the  east  of  that  river ;  the  Pearl  river  is  its  extreme 
eastern  boundary,  and  the  Sabine  its  western.  It  is  in  length  240  miles,  by 
210  in  breadth.  It  contains  48,220  square  miles,  or  30,860,800  acres. 

Three-fourths  of  the  State  are  without  an  elevation,  that  can  be  properly 
called  a  hill.  The  pine  woods  generally  have  a  surface  of  a  very  particu- 
lar character,  rising  into  fine  swells,  with  -table  surfaces  on  the  summit,  and 
valleys  from  30  to  40  feet  deep.  But  they  are  without  any  particular  range, 
and,  like  the  waves  of  a  high  and  irregular  sea.  The  alluvial  soil  is  level, 
and  the  swamps,  which  are  the  only  inundated  alluvions,  are  dead  flats. 
The  vast  prairies,  which  constitute  a  large  portion  of  the  surface  of  the 
State,  have,  in  a  remarkable  degree,  all  the  distinctive  aspects  of  prairies. 
To  the  eye  they  seem  as  level  as  the  still  surface  of  a  lake.  They  are, 
except  the  quaking  prairies,  higher  and  drier  than  the  savannas  of  Florida. 

The  new  and  remote  parish  taken  from  Natchitoches,  called  Claiborne, 
is  a  high  and  rolling  country. — There  are  considerable  hills  beyond  the 
Mississippi  alluvions,  east  of  that  river.  But  generally  speaking,  Louisiana 
is  one  immense  plain,  divided  into  pine-woods,  prairies,  alluvions,  swamps, 
and  hickory  and  oak  lands. 

On  the  banks  of  the  Mississippi,  La  Fourche,  the  Teche,  and  the  Ver- 
million,  below  lat.  30°  12'  north,  wherever  the  soil  is  elevated  above  the 
annual  inundations,  sugar  can  be  produced ;  and  the  lands  are  generally 
devoted  to  this  crop.  In  all  other  parts  of  the  State,  cotton  is  the  staple. 
The  best  districts  for  cotton  are  the  banks  of  Red  River,  Washita,  Teche, 
and  the  Mississippi.  Rice  is  more  particularly  confined  to  the  banks  of  the 
Mississippi,  where  irrigation  can  be  easily  performed. — The  quantity  of 
land  within  the  State  adapted  to  the  cultivation  of  the  three  staples,  has 
been  estimated  as  follows :  sugar,  250,000  acres  ;  rice,  250,000  ;  cotton, 
2,400,000.  Some  of  the  sugar-planters  have  derived  a  revenue  in  some 
years  of  $600  from  the  labor  of  each  of 'their  slaves ;  from  $350  to  $450 
is  the  ordinary  calculation.  The  cultivation  of  cotton  is  believed  to  be 
equally  profitable.  The  amount  of  sugar  has  gradually  increased  in 
this  State,  from  1783  to  the  present  time.  A  duty  of  2£  cents  per  pound 
on  foreign  sugar,  from  1803  up  to  1816,  and  of  3  cents  until  recently,  and 
at  present  2J,  and  of  10  cents  a  gallon  on  molasses  until  last  year,  and  at 
present  5  cents,  has  been  the  occasion  of  this  advance  in  the  cultivation  of 
the  sugar-cane.  It  is  estimated  that  150,000,000  pounds  of  sugar  are 
annually  consumed  in  the  United  States,  and  that  more  than  100,000,000 
of  pounds  are  now  made  in  Louisiana,  Florida,  and  Georgia,  but  by  far 
the  greatest  part  in  Louisiana.  In  this  State  there  are  at  the  present  time 
about  50,000,000  of  dollars  invested  in  the  sugar  business,  in  lands,  slaves, 
steam-engines,  and  other  property ;  the  quantity  of  s\igar  made  here  in 


286 


GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


1810,  is  estimated  at  nearly  10,000,000  of  pounds,  so  that  in  20  years  the 
increase  has  been  about  ten-fold.. 

The  extensive  prairie  land,  in  the  south-west  part  of  the  State,  embracing 
the  district  of  Opelousas,  and  the  greater  part  of  Attakapas,  is  most  admi- 
rably adapted  to  the  rearing  of  cattle,  and  has  hitherto  been  used  almost 
exclusively  for  that  purpose.  Many  of  the  richer  planters  on  the  Teche 
and  Vermillion,  have  stock  farms  established  on  Mermentau  and  Calcasiu 
rivers,  and  count  their  cattle  by  the  thousand. 

The  population  is  principally  confined  to  the  settlements  on  the  Missis- 
sippi. In  the  upper  settlements  the  inhabitants  are  principally  Canadians ; 
in  the  middle,  Germans ;  and  in  the  lower,  French  and  Spaniards.  A  few 
years  since,  a  majority  of  the  inhabitants  were  Roman  Catholics.  The 
clergy  of  this  order,  however,  are  not  numerous  ;  and  the  constant  intro- 
duction of  emigrants  from  the  north  is  effecting  a  rapid  revolution  in  all 
the  institutions  of  the  country. 

In  journeying  from  New  Orleqns  to  the  mouth  of  Sabine  river,  men  are 
met  with  in  every  stage  of  civilization.  In  New  Orleans,  and  other  places 
on  the  banks  of  the  Mississippi,  the  sugar  and  cotton  planters  live  in  splen- 
did edifices,  and  enjoy  all  the  luxury  that  wealth  can  impart.  In  Attaka- 
pas and  Opelousas,  the  glare  of  expensive  luxury  vanishes,  and  is  followed 
by  substantial  independence.  In  the  western  parts  of  Opelousas,  are  found 
herdsmen  and  hunters;  the  cabins  are  rudely  and  hastily  constructed,  and 
the  whole  scene  recalls  to  the  imagination  the  primeval  state  of  society. 

The  exports  from  Louisiana  are  not  confined  to  its  own  produce.  The 
bulky  articles  of  all  the  western  States  go  down  the  Mississippi,  and  are 
cleared  out  at  New  Orleans.  The  value  of  the  exports  in  1804,  was 
$1,600,362.  In  the  year  ending  30th  of  September,  1831,  the  value  of 
imports  at  New  Orleans,  from  foreign  countries,  was  $9,761,588.  Of 
exports,  there  were  shipped  from  that  city  during  that  year  to  foreign  coun- 
tries, $15,752,029,  and  coastwise,  $11,418,622;  total,  $27,170,651. 
There  was  exported  the  same  year,  of  cotton,  170,541,259  Ibs. ;  of  tobacco, 
36,132  hhds.,  and  sugar,  55,351,259  Ibs.,  exclusive  of  what  was  sent  up 
the  Mississippi  river,  the  amount  of  which  almost  equalled  what  was 
shipped  to  the  Atlantic  States  and  to  foreign  countries.

of  the  city  of  New  Orleans.  It  is  1 4  miles  long,  30  feet  wide,  and  4  deep. 

Lafourche  Canal  passes  from  the  river  Lafourche,  16  miles  below  its 
efflux  from  the  Mississippi.  It  opens  from  the  right  bank  of  the  river  into 
a  small  creek  uniti-ng  with  lake  Verret,  and  is  navigable  only  in  times  of 
high  water. 

Plaquemine  Canal  is  a  short  cut  from  the  Mississippi  into  Bayou  Pla- 
quemine ;  navigable  only  in  times  of  high  water. 

New  Orleans  and  Teche  Canal  is  a  partly  executed  navigation  of  100 
miles  in  length,  extending  from  a  point  on  the  Mississippi,  opposite  to  New 
Orleans,  to  the  waters  which  unite  with  Teche  river,  at  Berwick's  bay. 

KAIL-ROADS. 

Lake  Ponchartrain  Rail-road. — Company  incorporated  in  January, 
1830,  with  exclusive  privileges  for  25  years.  It  is  about  4£  miles  long, 
extending  from  Lake  Ponchartrain  to  New  Orleans.  Single  track.  It  is 
perfectly  straight,  and  nearly  level,  the  ascent  and  descent  being  only  16 
inches.  Completed  in  April,  1831.  Cost,  $15,000  a  mile.  An  act  of 
Congress  has  been  obtained,  establishing. a  por-t  of  entry  on  lake  Ponchar- 
train ;  and  an  artificial  harbor  and  breakwater  are  now  constructing  at  the 
termination  of  the  rail-road. 

West  Feliciana  Rail-road,  to  extend  from  the  Mississippi,  near  St.  Fran- 
cisville,  to  Woodville  in  the  State  of  Mississippi.  (See  Mississippi.) 

In  the  legislature  of  this  State,  a  bill  was  lately  introduced  in  which  the 
most  magnificent  scheme  of  internal  improvement  ever  contemplated,  was 
submitted.  The  bill  proposes  the  incorporation  of  a  company  with  a  capi- 
tal of  twenty  millions,  to  construct  a  rail-road  from  New  Orleans  to  Baton 
Rouge,  St.  Francisville,  and  Clinton,  thence  eastwardly  to  the  boundary 
line  of  Mississippi.  It  is  recommended  as  part  of  a  great  route  through 
Mississippi,  Alabama,  Georgia,  North  and  South  Carolina,  and  Virginia,  to 
Washington  city.  One  of  its  advocates  affirms,  that  if  these  States  will 
pass  laws  to  authorize  the  construction,  companies  will  be  formed  for  con- 
tinuing the  road,  so  that  within  twenty  years  a  trip  from  New  Orleans  to 
Washington  will  not  occupy  more  than  six  days.

ARKANSAS. 

THE  earliest  settlement  of  whites  within  the  limits  of  the  territory  of 
Arkansas,  was  made  by  the  Chevalier  de  Tonti,  in  1685.  Proceeding  from 
a  fort  then  recently  established  on  the  Illinois  river,  he  penetrated  to  the 


288  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


mouth  of  the  Mississippi.  On  his  return,  in  ascending  the  Mississippi  river, 
he  sailed  up  the  Arkansas  to  the  principal  village  of  the  Indians  of  that 
name,  with  whom  he  formed  an  alliance.  Here  he  built  a  fort,  and  at  the 
desire  of  the  natives,  left  some  of  his  men  to  settle  among  them.  At  that 
period,  the  Arkansas  Indians  were  deemed  one  of  the  most  powerful  tribes 
in  the  country ;  and  the  French,  to  preserve  peace  with  them,  and  to  secure 
their  trade,  intermarried  among  them,  and  adopted  most  of  their  habits  and 
manners.  The  new  settlers  found  their  numbers  gradually  augmented,  by 
the  arrival  of  emigrants  from  Canada,  who  descended  the  Mississippi.  The 
progress  of  settlement  was,  however,  extremely  slow,  and  whatever  events 
«may  have  happened  in  this  territory,  between  the  commencement  of  the 
eighteenth  century  and  the  period  of  its  transfer  to  the  United  States,  his- 
tory has  not  recorded  them.  In  February,  1819,  it  was  enacted  by  Con- 
gress, that  that  portion  of  country  situated  between  north  latitude  33°  and 
the  southern  boundary  of  Missouri,  should  be  erected  into  a  Territorial 
Government,  under  the  designation  of  the  Territory  of  Arkansas.  The 
population  of  this  Territory  is  increasing  with  such  rapidity,  that  it  is  proba- 
ble but  a  short  period  will  elapse  before  it  will  take  its  station  among  the 
States  of  the  Union. 

This  Territory  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Missouri,  east  by  the  Missis- 
sippi river,  which  separates  it  from  Tennessee  and  the  State  of  Mississippi, 
south  by  Louisiana,  and  west  by  a  line  drawn  from  the  south-western  cor- 
ner of  Missouri  to  Fort  Smith,  on  the  Arkansas  river,  and  thence  by  a  due 
south  line  to  the  Red  River,  up  Red  River  to  the  point  where  the  western 
limit  of  the  United  States  from  the  Sabine  to  Red  River  intersects  that 
stream,  and  thence  down  that  line  to  the  33d  degree  of  north  latitude.  Its 
southern  line  is  the  33d  degree  of  north  latitude,  and  northern  36°  30'.  Its 
length,  from  north  to  south,  is  245  miles,  and  mean  breadth  about  212  ;  its 
area  is  51,960  square  miles,  or  33,241,600  acres.  The  principal  river  is  the 
Arkansas,  which  flows  down  from  the  Rocky  Mountains.  Its  course  is 
nearly  through  the  centre  of  the  territory  from  west  to  east ;  and  it  affords 
at  all  times  steam-boat  navigation  to  Little  Rock,  250  miles  from  the  Mis- 
sissippi, and  occasionally  to  Cantonment  Gibson,  nearly  400  miles  higher 
up ;  the  other  important  streams  are  the  Red  River,  (which  flows  through 
the  south-west  angle  of  the  territory,)  St.. Francis,  White,  and  Washita 
rivers.  Arkansas  has  considerable  advantages  for  commerce ;  pearly  every 
part  of  it  has  a  direct  and  easy  communication  with  New  Orleans,  the  great 
emporium  of  trade  for  the  whole  Mississippi  valley.  The  surface  of  the 
country  exhibits  much  variety.  In  the  eastern  portion,  along  the  Missis- 
sippi river,  it  is  level,  and  often  overflown  by  that  noble  river  and  its  large 
confluents,  which  have  their  course  through  this  territory.  In  the  central 
part  it  is  undulating  and  broken,  and  in  the  western  section  it  is  traversed 
by  the  Ozark  mountains,  which  are  estimated  to  attain  an  altitude  of  3,000 
feet  above  the  ocean.  The  other  considerable  elevations  are  the  Black 
Hills,  north  of  the  Arkansas,  and  the  Washita  Hills,  or  Masserne  Moun- 
tains, on  the  head  waters  of  the  Washita  river.  The  soil  is  of  all  quali- 
ties, from  the  most  productive  to  the  most  sterile;  much  of  it  is  of  the  latter 
description.  It  has,  however,  a  sufficient  amount  of  excellent  land  to  enable 
it  to  become  a  rich  and  populous  State,  which  it  will  unquestionably  be  at 
no  distant  day.  The  column  of  emigration  has  begun  to  move  in  this  direc- 
tion, and  several  thousands  have  been  added  to  its  population  within  the  last 


ARKANSAS.

three  years.  Of  the  products  of  Arkansas,  cotton  is  the  staple  ;  corn  and 
sweet  potatoes  thrive  well ;  wheat,  and  other  small  grains,  have  not  been 
cultivated  to  a  great  extent ;  peaches  are  remarkably  fine ;  apples  do  not 
succeed,  except  on  the  elevated  parts  of  the  territory,  at  a  distance  from  the 
Mississippi.  The  wild  fruits,  grapes,  plums,  &c.  are  abundant.  Among 
the  curiosities  of  this  country  may  be  mentioned  the  vast  masses  of  sea- 
shells  that  are  found  dispersed  over  different  tracts  of  it :  they  are  generally 
found  in  points  remote  from  limestone,  and  answer  a  valuable  purpose  to 
the  inhabitants,  who  collect  and  burn  them  for  lime.  The  Hot  or  Warm 
Springs,  are  among  the  most  interesting  curiosities  of  the  country ;  they 
are  in  great  numbers.  One  of  them  emits  a  vast  quantity  of  water :  they 
are  remarkably  limpid  and  pure,  and  are  used  by  the  people  who  resort 
there  for  health,  for  culinary  purposes.  They  have  been  analyzed,  and 
exhibit  no  mineral  properties  beyond  cpmmon  spring- water.  Their  efficacy, 
then,  for  they  are  undoubtedly  efficacious  to  many  invalids  that  resort  there, 
results  from  the  shade  of  adjacent  mountains,  and  from  the  cool  oxygenated 
mountain  breeze,  the  conveniences  of  warm  and  tepid  bathing,  the  novelty 
of  fresh  mountain  scenery,  and  the  necessity  of  temperance  imposed  by 
the  poverty  of  the  country,  and  the  difficulty  of  procuring  supplies.  During 
the  spring  floods  of  the  Washita,  a  steam-boat  can  approach  within  30 
miles  of  them.  At  no  great  distance  is  a  strong  sulphur-spring,  remarkable 
for  its  coldness.  In  the  wild  and  mountain  scenery  of  this  lonely  region, 
there  is  much  of  grandeur  and  novelty  to  fix  the  curiosity  of  the  lover  of 
Nature.

TENNESSEE. 

LIKE  most  others  of  the  newly  established  States,  Tennessee  derives  her 
name  from  her  chief  river.  In  the  language  of  the  Indians,  by  whom  this 
district  was  inhabited  when  first  visited  by  the  whites,  the  word  Ten-assee 
is  said  to  have  signified  a  curved  spoon,  the  curvature  to  their  imagination 
resembling  that  of  the  river  Tennessee.  The  territory  now  comprising  this 


290  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


State,  was  included  in  the  second  charter  of  North  Carolina,  granted  by 
Charles  II.  in  1664,  but  no  settlement  of  whites  was  made  so  far  westward 
until  1754,  when  a  few  families  located  themselves  on  Cumberland  river, 
but  were  driven  away  by  the  savages.  The  first  permanent  settlement  was 
made  by  the  erection  of  Fort  Loudon,  in  1757.  A  war  with  the  Cherokees 
broke  out  in  1759,  and  in  the  ensuing  year  Fort  Loudon  was  taken,  and 
the  garrison  and  the  inhabitants  massacred.  In  1761,  Colonel  Grant  forced 
the  Indians  to  a  peace,  and  a  treaty  was  made  with  them  which  encouraged 
emigration.  About  1765,  settlements  commenced  on  the  Holston,  and 
gradually  increased ;  though  harassed  by  Indian  warfare,  the  hardy  frontier 
men  penetrated  deeper  and  deeper  into  the  forest ;  and  at  the  commence- 
ment of  the  revolutionary  war,  the  population  had  increased,  to  a  considera- 
ble extent,  who  unanimously  supported  the  measures  of  Congress  against 
the  oppressions  of  the  mother  country,  and  were  in  consequence  much 
harassed  by  the  Cherokees,  who,  incited  by  the  intrigues  of  the  British, 
made  numerous  attacks  upon  the  frontier  settlements.  The  brilliant  victory 
of  King's  Mountain,  achieved  by  the  hardy  riflemen  of  Tennessee  and 
Kentucky,  was  a  momentous  event  in  the  history  of  both  ;  it  gave  them  a 
name  in  the  annals  of  their  country,  and  by  destroying  the  power  of  the 
Royalists  in  that  quarter,  gave  them  security  against  the  savages.  Internal 
discord,  however,  distracted  the  country  for  several  years. 

Between  1784  and  1789,  attempts  were  made  to  form  East  Tennessee 
into  a  separate  State,  by  the  name  of  Frankland.  In  1790,  North  Carolina 
ceded  the  whole  of  what  is  now  Tennessee  to  the  United  States,  and  the 
same  year  it  was  made  the  territory  south-west  of  the  Ohio.  The  territo- 
rial government  continued  until  June,  1795,  when  the  inhabitants  of  both 
Tennessees  being  found  to  amount  to  77,262  persons,  a  convention  was 
called,  which  met  at  Knoxville,  Jan.  11,  1796;  and  on  February  9th  re- 
ported a  Constitution  for  the  new  State,  which,  on  the  first  of  June,  of  the 
same  year,  was  received  into  the  confederacy  as  an  independent  member. 

Since  the  period  of  her  admission  into  the  Union,  Tennessee  has  main- 
tained an  honorable  rank  among  her  sister  States.  Her  citizens  have  been 
surpassed  by  no  others  in  patriotism  and  bravery,  to  which  the  conquest  of 
the  Seminoles,  and  still  more  signally  the  victory  of  New  Orleans,  bear 
witness.  In  population,  the  growth  of  this  State  has  been  remarkably  rapid, 
although  many  of  its  citizens  have  emigrated  to  the  comparatively  newer 
settlements  in  Mississippi  and  Alabama. 

Tennessee  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Kentucky ;  east  by  North  Caro- 
lina; south  by  Georgia,  Alabama,  and  Mississippi;  and  west  by  Arkansas 
Territory,  from  which  it  is  separated  by  the  Mississippi  river.  It  is  430 
miles  long,  and  104  broad,  and  contains  40,000  square  miles,  or  25,600,000 
acres. 

The  principal  rivers  are  Mississippi,  Tennessee,  Cumberland,  Clinch, 
Duck,  Holston,  French-Broad,  Nolichucky,  Hiwassee,  Tellico,  Reelfoot, 
Obion,  Forked  Deer,  Wolf,  and  Elk  river. 

Tennessee  is  washed  by  the  great  river  Mississippi  on  the  west,  and  the 
fine  rivers  Tennessee  and  Cumberland  pass  through  it  in  very  serpentine 
courses.  The  western  part  is  undulating ;  some  of  it  level ;  in  the  middle 
it  is  hilly ;  and  the  eastern  part,  known  by  the  name  of  East  Tennessee, 
abounds  in  mountains,  many  of  them  lofty,  and  presenting  scenery  pecu- 
liarly grand  and  picturesque.  Of  these  mountains  the  Cumberland,  or 


TENNESSEE. 


291 


great  Laurel  Ridge,  is  the  most  remarkable.  Stone,  Iron,  Bald,  Smoky,  or 
Unaka  mountains,  join  each  other,  and  form,  In  a  direction  nearly  north- 
east and  south-west,  the  eastern  boundary  of  the  State. 

The  geological  formation  of  this  State  is  wholly  secondary,  except  a 
small  portion  of  the  eastern  part,  which  is  transition,  and  numerous  spots 
on  the  banks  of  rivers,  which  are  alluvial.  A  considerable  portion  of  the 
State  is  bedded  on  lime-stone.  A  large  deposit  of  gypsum  has  been  lately 
discovered.  Copperas,  alum,  nitre,  and  lead,  are  among  the  minerals.  Some 
silver  has  been  found.  Coal  is  supposed  to  be  plentiful.  Saltpetre  is  so 
abundant  as  to  form  a  great  article  of  commerce.  There  are  several  mine- 
ral springs,  and  many  valuable  salt  springs. 

The  soil  in  a  country  so  uneven  must  be  very  various.  The  western 
part  of  the  State  has  a  black,  rich  soil ;  in  the  middle  are  great  quantities 
of  excellent  land ;  in  the  eastern,  part  of  the  mountains  are  barren,  but  there 
are  many  fertile  valleys.  There  is  a  great  profusion  of  natural  timber, 
poplar,  hickory,  walnut,  oak,  beach,  sycamore,  locust,  cherry,  sugar-maple, 
•fee.,  and  in  many  places  are  great  quantities  of  cane  remarkably  thick  and 
strong.  The  State  also  abounds  with  medicinal  plants,  such  as  snake-root, 
ginseng,  Carolina  pink,  angelica,  senna,  annise,  spikenard,  &c.  Tennessee 
is  also  well  supplied  with  animals  and  birds  of  various  kinds,  and  the  rivers 
abound  in  divers  sorts  of  fish. 

The  climate  is  generally  healthful.  In  East  Tennessee,  the  heat  is  so 
tempered  by  the  mountain  air  on  one  side,  and  by  refreshing  breezes  from 
the  Gulf  of  Mexico  on  the  other,  that  this  part  of  the  State  has  one  of  the 
most  desirable  climates  in  North  America.  The  middle  part  resembles  Ken- 
tucky in  climate. 

The  winter  in  Tennessee  resembles  the  spring  in  New  England.  Snow 
seldom  falls  to  a  greater  depth  than  10  inches,  or  lies  longer  than  10  days. 
Cumberland  river  has  been  frozen  over  but  three  times  since  the  country 
was  settled.  Cattle  are  rarely  sheltered  in  winter. 

In  the  western  parts  there  are  some  low  bottoms  on  which  the  inhabitants 
are  subject  to  bilious  fevers,  and  fever  and  ague  in  the  autumn. 

The  great  business  of  the  State  is  agriculture.  The  soil  produces  abun- 
dantly cotton  and  tobacco,  which  are  the  staple  commodities.  The  inhabit- 
ants also  raise  a  plentiful  supply  of  grain,  grass,  and  fruit.  They  export 
cotton,  tobacco,  and  flour,  in  considerable  quantities;  also  saltpetre,  and 
many  other  articles.  The  principal  commerce  is  carried  on  through  the 
Tennessee  and  Cumberland  rivers,  and  from  them  through  the  Ohio  and 
Mississippi  to  New  Orleans.  This  State  also  supplies  Kentucky,  Ohio,  &c. 
with  cotton  for  inland  manufactures  ;  and  from  East  Tennessee  considerable 
numbers  of  cattle  are  sent  to  the  sea-ports  on  the  Atlantic. 

Nashville  University,  at  Nashville,  is  a  respectable  institution,  with  con- 
siderable endowments.  East  Tennessee  College  is  at  Knoxville.  Green- 
ville College,  the  oldest  in  the  State,  is  at  Greenville ;  and  there  is  a  theo- 
logical school  at  Maryville.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

Internal  improvements  in  Tennessee  are  as  yet  merely  prospective.  Sur- 
veys have  been  made  under  a  late  appropriation  of  Congress,  with  a  view 
to  the  improvement  of  the  navigation  of  the  Tennessee  river.  Others  have 
been  made  to  ascertain  the  practicability  of  effecting  a  navigable  communi- 
cation between  the  head  waters  of  the  Hiwassee  and  Savannah  rivers,  anc 
also  between  the  Tennessee  and  Coosa,  by  the  valleys  of  Lookout  anc 
Wills'  creeks,  and  by  those  of  the  Chickamauga  and  Little  rivers.  It  is 
also  proposed  to  connect  the  Hiwassee  river  with  the  head  waters  of  the 
Connesauga,  the  most  northern  branch  of  the  Coosa;  from  whence,  by  the 
improvement  of  the  river  channels,  and  a  series  of  rail -roads,  a  communi- 
cation is  intended  to  be  completed  to  the  waters  of  the  Gulf  of  Mexico,  at 
Mobile.  (For  a  detail  of  the  plan  of  this  improvement,  see  Alabama.) 

A  rail-road  from  Jackson,  in  Madison  county,  to  Memphis,  on  the  Mis- 
sissippi river,  is  intended  to  be  commenced  in  a  short  period,  and  is  regarded 
as  a  work  that  will  add  much  to  the  convenience  of  the  western  part  of  the 
State.

KENTUCKY. 

THE  earliest  accounts  received  of  the  valley  west  of  the  Alleghany 
mountains,  were  communicated  by  traders,  who,  in  their  intercourse  with 
the  Indians,  had  extended  their  discoveries  far  into  the  wilderness.  By 
whom  the  territory  of  this  prosperous  commonwealth  was  first  explored,  is 
a  matter  of  uncertainty,  and  has  given  rise  to  some  controversy  :  as  early 
as  1754,  James  M'Bride  and  others,  and  in  1767,  John  Finley  of  North 
Carolina,  travelled  over  the  country  watered  by  the  Kentucky  river.  The 
latter,  on  his  return  to  North  Carolina,  communicated  an  account  of  his 
observations  to  Col.  Daniel  Boon,  who,  with  a  few  others,  set  out  in  1769 
to  explore  the  country  ;  after  undergoing  great  hardships  from  the  fatigues 
incident  to  such  an  adventure,  and  from  the  hostility  of  the  Indians,  the 
adventurers,  with  the  exception  of  Boon,  determined  to  return  home :  the 
latter,  to  whom  dangers  and  difficulties  seem  to  have  been  familiar  through 
life,  continued  an  inhabitant  of  the  wilderness  until  1771,  when  he  returned 
to  his  home,  and  in  two  years  afterwards  set  out  with  his  own  and  five 
other  families,  and  forty  men,  to  form  a  settlement.  They  were  followed  at 
various  times  by  a  considerable  number  of  emigrants  ;  and  in  1780>after  a 
very  severe  and  rigorous  winter,  they  determined  to  abandon  the  country 
for  ever,  but  were  diverted  from  this  step  by  a  seasonable  reinforcement  of 
emigrants.  In  1777,  the  Legislature  of  Virginia,  of  which  State  the  terri- 
tory in  question  formed  a  part,  erected  it  into  a  county,  and  in  1782,  a 
supreme  court  was  established.  With  the  revolutionary  war  the  principal 
difficulties  of  the  inhabitants  terminated ;  settlements  were  now  rapidly 
made,  and  as  early  as  1785,  a  project  of  separation  from  Virginia  was 
formed,  but  from  various  causes,  was  not  effected  until  December  1790, 
when  Kentucky  became  independent  of  Virginia,  and  on  June  1st,  1792, 
was  admitted  into  the  confederation  of  the  States.  It  was  not  until  the 
treaty  of  Greenville,  made  by  General  Wayne,  in  1795,  that  the  inhabit- 
ants of  Kentucky  were  entirely  freed  from  Indian  hostility;  previous  to 
this  period  many  of  them  had  fallen  in  the  field  of  battle,  or  in  their  corn 
fields  or  houses,  by  the  hands  of  their  savage  foes.  The  growth  of  this 
State  was  now  so  rapid  that  she  soon  obtained  a  respectable  rank  and  influ- 
ence, and  naturally  took  the  lead  among  the  western  States.  The  declara- 
tion of  war  in  1812  was  received  with  acclamation,  and  supported  with 
zeal,  by  her  patriotic  citizens;  at  one  time  upwards  of  7000  Kentuckian 
volunteers  and  militia  were  in  the  field,  and  so  universal  was  the  desire  to 
share  in  the  danger  and  glory  of  the  war,  that  the  executive  authorities 
were  obliged  to  limit  the  numbers.  During  this  period  the  chair  of  the 
State  government  was  filled  by  Isaac  Shelby,  a  hero  of  the  revolutionary 
war,  who,  at  an  advanced  age,  manifested  the  same  enterprise  and  bravery 


KENTUCKY.  295 


that  had  gained  him  an  honorable  distinction  at  the  battle  of  King's  Moun- 
tain. Kentucky  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  the  Ohio  river,  which  sepa- 
rates it  from  the  States  of  Ohio,  Indiana,  and  Illinois ;  east  by  Virginia, 
south  by  Tennessee,  and  west  by  the  Mississippi,  which  separates  it  from 
the  State  of  Missouri ;  the  greatest  length  is  about  400  miles,  breadth  170, 
area  40,500  square  miles,  or  25,920,000  acres. 

The  principal  rivers  of  Kentucky  are  the  Ohio,  which  flows  along  the 
State  637  miles,  following  its  windings  ;  the  Mississippi,  Tennessee,  Cum- 
berland, Kentucky,  Green,  Licking,  Big  Sandy,  Salt,  and  Rolling. 

Cumberland  mountains  form  the  south-east  boundary  of  this  State.  The 
eastern  counties,  bordering  on  Virginia,  are  mountainous  and  broken.  A 
tract  from  5  to  20. miles  wide,  along  the  banks  of  the  Ohio,  is  hilly  and 
broken  land,  interspersed  with  many  fertile  valleys.  Between  this  strip, 
Green  river,  and  the  eastern  counties,  lies  what  has  been  called  the  garden 
of  the  State.  This  is  the  most  populous  part,  and  is  about  150  nines  long, 
and  from  50  to  100  wide,  and  comprises  the  counties  of  Mason,  Fleming, 
Montgomery,  Clarke,  Bourbon,  Fayette,  Scott,  Harrison,  Franklin,  Wood- 
ford,  Mercer,  Jessamine,  Madison,  Garrard,  Casey,  Lincoln,  Washington, 
and  Green.  The  surface  of  this  district  is  agreeably  undulating,  and  the 
soil  black  and  friable,  producing  black  walnut,  black  cherry,  honey  locust, 
buckeye,  pawpaw,  sugar-tree,  mulberry,  elm,  ash,  cotton-wood,  and  white 
thorn.  The  whole  State,  below  the  mountains,  rests  on  an  immense  bed 
of  limestone,  usually  about  eight  feet  below  the  surface.  There  are  every- 
where apertures  in  this  limestone,  through  which  the  waters  of  the  rivers 
sink  into  the  earth.  The  large  rivers  of  Kentucky,  for  this  reason,  are 
more  diminished  during  the  dry  season,  than  those  of  any  other  part  of  the 
United  States,  and  the  small  streams  entirely  disappear.  The  banks  of  the 
rivers  are  natural  curiosities ;  the  rivers  having  generally  worn  very  deep 
channels  in  the  calcareous  rocks  over  which  they  flow.  The  precipices 
formed  by  Kentucky  river  are  in  many  places  awfully  sublime,  presenting 
perpendicular  banks  of  300  feet  of  solid  limestone,  surmounted  with  a 
steep  and  difficult  ascent,  four  times  as  high.  In  the  south-west  part  of  the 
State,  between  Green  river  and  the  Cumberland,  there  are  several  wonder- 
ful caves. 

The  principal  productions  of  Kentucky  are  hemp,  tobacco,  wheat,  and 
Indian  corn.  Salt  springs  are  numerous,  and  supply  not  only  this  State, 
but  a  great  part  of  Ohio  and  Tennessee,  with  this  mineral.  The  principal 
manufactures  are  cloth,  spirits,  cordage,  salt,  and  maple-sugar.  Hemp, 
tobacco,  and  wheat,  are  the  principal  exports.  These  are  carried  down  the 
Ohio  and  Mississippi  to  New  Orleans,  and  foreign  goods  received  from  the 
same  place  in  return.  Louisville,  on  the  Ohio,  is  the  centre  of  this  trade. 
The  introduction  of  steam -boat  navigation  on  the  Ohio  has  been  of  incalcu- 
lable benefit  to  the  commercial  and  manufacturing  interests  of  Kentucky. 
In  addition  to  the  important  commerce  with  New  Orleans,  by  the  channel 
of  the  Mississippi  river,  Kentucky  has  intimate  commercial  relations  with 
the  chief  cities  on  the  Atlantic  seaboard. 

There  is  a  tract  of  country  in  the  south-western  part  of  the  State,  east 
and  north  of  Cumberland  river,  and  watered  by  Green  and  Barren  rivers, 
about  100  miles  in  extent,  called  the  barrens,  which,  a  few  years  since, 
was  a  beautiful  prairie,  destitute  of  timber.  It  is  now  covered  with  a  young 
growth  of  various  kinds  of  trees.  These,  however,  do  not  prevent  the 


296                                            GENERAL  VIEW  OF 

growth  of  grass,  and  an  almost  endless  variety  of  plants,  which  are  in 
bloom  during  the  whole  of  the  spring  and  summer,  when  the  whole  region 
is  a  wilderness  of  the  most  beautiful  flowers.     The  soil  is  of  an  excellent 
quality,  being  a  mixture  of  clay,  loam,  and  sand.     Through  this  country 
there  runs  a  chain  of  conical  hills,  called  knobs. 
Horses  are  raised  in  great  numbers,  and  of  the  noblest  kinds.     A  hand- 
some horse  is  the  highest  pride  of  a  Kentuckian,  and  common  farmers  own 
from  ten  to  fifty.     Great  numbers  are  carried  over  the  mountains  to  the 
Atlantic  States  ;  and  the  principal  supply  of  saddle  and  carriage  horses  in 
the  lower  country  is  drawn  from  Kentucky,  or  the  other  western  States. 
The  horses  are  carried  down  in  flat  boats.     Great  droves  of  cattle  are  also 
driven  from  this  State,  over  the  mountains,  to  Virginia  and  Pennsylvania.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

Louisville  and  Portland  Canal. — Incorporated  in  1825.  Completed  in 
1831.  Length,  2  miles;  breadth,  at  the  surface,  200  feet,  at  bottom,  50. 
This  canal  was  constructed  to  overcome  a  fall  of  22  feet  on  the  Ohio  river, 
at  Louisville.  The  entire  bed  of  this  canal  is  excavated  through  a  ledge 
of  lime  rock,  and  a  part  of  it  to  the  depth  of  12  feet.  Its  locks,  bridges, 
&c.  are  built  in  the  most  substantial  manner,  and  contain  4989  perches  of 
stone  masonry,  equal  to  about  30  common  canal  locks.  It  is  a  work  of 
great  utility,  as  well  as  great  expense ;  827  boats,  406  of  which  were  steam- 
boats, passed  this  canal  in  104  days,  in  1831.  It  is  calculated  that  there 
will  annually  pass  this  canal  about  half  as  much  tonnage  as  is  employed 
in  the  coasting  trade  of  the  United  States.  From  the  difficulty  of  excavat- 
ing earth  and  rock  from  so  great  a  depth  and  width,  together  with  the  con- 
tingencies attending  its  construction  from  the  difference  of  level  between 
the  highest  and  lowest  stage  of  the  water  in  the  Ohio  river,  amounting  to 
about  60  feet,  it  is  necessarily  a  work  of  great  magnitude,  having  cost 
more  than  any  other  similar  extent  of  canal  work  in  the  United  States,  and 
for  its  length,  is  perhaps  the  most  important  hydraulic  work  of  the  kind 
ever  executed. 

Lexington  and  Ohio  Rail-road. — Incorporated  in  1830.  Commenced 
m  1831.  Capital  $1,000,000.  This  road  extends  from  Lexington  to 
Frankfort,  on  Kentucky  river,  25  miles,  and  from  thence  to  the  Ohio  river, 
near  Shippingport,  two  miles  below  Louisville ;  total  length,  66  miles.  The 
maximum  grade  of  this  rail-road  is  30  feet  a  mile,  and  the  minimum  curva- 
ture 1000  feet  radius.  It  is  constructed  for  locomotive  steam-engines  of 
great  power  and  speed.

OHIO. 

THE  French  were  the  first  to  explore  the  countries  on  the  waters  of  the 
Ohio.  In  1  680,  M.  de  la  Salle  traversed,  before  any  other  European,  the  region 
between  the  lakes  and  the  Mississippi.     He  was  followed  by  many  of  his 
countrymen,  who,  for  upwards  of  half  a  century,  seem  to  have  been  ex- 
clusively the  visitors  of  this  region  ;  their  object  was  the  prosecution  of  the 
fur  trade,  and,  unlike  their  English  neighbors,  they  manifested  little  dispo- 
sition to  appropriate  the  country  by  settlements.  By  the  conquest  of  Canada, 

OHIO.  299 

and  the  treaty  of  1763,  Great  Britain  succeeded  to  all  the  French  posses- 
sions lying  between  the  Alleghany  and  the  Missouri.  The  beautiful  valley 
of  the  Ohio  was  now  thrown  open  to  the  American  trade ;  but  from  whatever 
causes  it  may  have  arisen,  the  British  government  was  not  disposed  to 
encourage  settlements.  The  Indians  were  still  numerous  and  powerful ; 
and  on  the  breaking  out  of  the  war  of  independence,  were  enticed  by  the 
British  to  take  part  against  the  frontier  settlers.  In  1787,  Congress  began 
the  exercise  of  its  jurisdiction  over  the  country  west  of  the  Alleghany 
mountains.  By  an  act  of  that  body,  a  territory  was  created,  called  the 
Territory  north-west  of  the  river  Ohio ;  and  in  the  same  year  preparations 
were  made  for  the  first  civilized  settlement  made  within  its  limits.  General 
Rufus  Putnam  and  the  Rev.  Manasseh  Cutler,  led  a  small  colony  from  Mid- 
dlesex and' Essex  counties,  Massachusetts,  who  located  themselves  at  Mari- 
etta, at  the  mouth  of  the  Muskingum  river.  Similar  to  every  settlement 
made  on  a  frontier  exposed  to  savage  war,  the  first  years  of  Ohio  were  spent 
in  constant  hardship  and  alarm.  The  treaty  of  Greenville,  and  the  surren- 
der of  Michigan,  in  1796,  gave  peace  to  the  west,  and  emigration  poured 
over  the  mountains  to  the  Ohio  valley.  In  1800,  Ohio  and  Michigan  were 
formed  into  a  separate  territory ;  but  having  acquired  sufficient  numbers  in 
Ohio' to  form  a  separate  State,  Michigan  was  detached  April  1802,  and  the 
former  authorized  to  form  a  Constitution.  January  1802,  after  every  neces- 
sary formality  was  complied  with,  Ohio  was  admitted  into  the  Union  as  a 
State.  Though  as  a  member  of  the  confederacy,  her  history  is  blended 
with  that  of  the  nation,  we  cannot  omit  an  expression  of  admiration  at  a 
progress  in  power,  resource,  and  energy,  that  has  no  parallel  in  history. — 
Less  than  half  a  century  ago,  all  was  a  wilderness,  inhabited  only  by  sav- 
age beasts,  or  by  still  more  savage  men ;  now,  1834,  with  a  million  of 
inhabitants,  her  cities,  towns,  canals,  roads,  colleges,  schools,  and  other 
improvements,  excite  the  admiration  of  the  world. 

The  State  of  Ohio  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Lake  Erie,  and  Michigan 
Territory ;  east  by  Pennsylvania  and  Virginia ;  south  by  the  Ohio  river, 
which  separates  it  from  Western  Virginia  and  Kentucky,  and  west  by  Indi- 
ana. Its  length  is  210  miles,  and  mean  breadth  200,  containing  about 
40,000  square  miles,  or  25,000,000  acres.  The  Ohio  river  forms  the 
boundary  of  this  State,  on  the  south-east  and  south,  for  near  500  miles. 

The  rivers  which  flow  into  Lake  Erie  on  the  north,  are  Maumee,  San- 
dusky,  Huron,  Vermillion,  Black,  Cuyahoga,  Grand,  and  Ashtabula ;  those 
on  the  south  flowing  inj:o  the  Ohio,  are  the  Muskingum,  Hockhocking,  Little 
and  Great  Miami.  The  Au-Glaize  and  St.  Mary's  in  the  western  part  of 
the  State,  are  branches  of  the  Maumee. 

The  interior  and  northern  parts  of  the  country,  bordering  on  Lake  Erie, 
are  generally  level,  and  in  some  places  marshy.  Nearly  one-third  of  the 
eastern  and  south-eastern  part  is  very  hilly  and  broken.  The  hills  are 
exceedingly  numerous,  but  they  seldom  rise  into  considerable  mountains. 
Immediately  upon  the  banks  of  the  Ohio,  and  several  of  its  tributaries,  are 
numerous  tracts  of  interval  or  meadow-land,  of  great  fertility.  In  the 
interior,  on  both  sides  of  the  Scioto,  and  on  the  Great  and  Little  Miami, 
are  perhaps  the  most  extensive  bodies  of  level  and  rich  land  in  the  State. 
In  many  parts  there  are  large  prairies,  particularly  on  the  head  waters  of 
the  Muskingum  and  Scioto,  and  between -the  Scioto  and  the  two  Miamis. 
Some  of  these  prairies  are  low  and  marshy,  producing  large  quantities  of 


300  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


coarse  grass,  from  2  to  5  feet  high ;  some  of  which  is  of  a  tolerably  good 
quality  :  other  prairies  are  elevated,  and  are  frequently  called  barrens  ;  not 
always  on  account  of  their  sterility,  for  they  are  often  fertile.  The  most 
elevated  tracts  of  country  between  the  rivers,  are  the  wettest  and  most 
marshy  in  the  State ;  and  the  driest  land  is  that  which  borders  on  the  vari- 
ous streams  of  water.  Among  the  forest  trees,  are  oak  of  various  species, 
maple,  hickory,  beach,  birch,  poplar,  sycamore,  ash,  pawpaw,  buckeye, 
cherry,  &c. 

This  State  produces  abundantly  everything  which  grows  in  the  middle 
States.  Corn  grows  luxuriantly,  yielding,  on  rich  alluvial  bottom  lands, 
from  50  to  75  bushels  per  acre ;  50  bushels  per  acre  are  a  common  and 
almost  average  crop.  Wheat  grows  finely  in  this  State  ;  and  flour  is  ex- 
ported in  vast  quantities  by  the  Ohio  and  Lake  Erie  to  southern  and  eastern 
markets.  Many  steam-mills  have  been  erected  in  this  State,  especially  in 
the  vicinity  of  the  Ohio  river,  for  the  manufacturing  of  flour.  Mills  for 
the  same  purpose,  propelled  by  water,  are  to  be  found  in  every  part  of  the 
State.  Rye,  oats,  buckwheat,  &c.  are  produced  abundantly  in  all  parts  of  the 
State.  Horses,  cattle,  and  hogs  are  here  raised  in  great  numbers,  and 
driven  to  an  eastern  market ;  and  thousands  of  barrels  of  beef  and  pork 
are  boated  from  all  the  towns  on  the  navigable  streams,  for  the  southern 
part  of  the  valley,  or  to  New  York. 

Coal  is  found  in  great  quantities  in  the  eastern  parts.  Iron  ore  has  been 
discovered,  and  wrought  pretty  extensively  in  several  places,  particularly 
on  the  south  of  Licking  river,  4  miles  west  of  Zanesville,  on  Brush  creek, 
and  in  some  other  places.  Salt  springs  are  found  on  some  of  the  eastern 
waters  of  Muskingum,  and  on  Salt  creek,  28  miles  south-east  of  Chillicothe, 
where  there  are  considerable  salt-works. 

The  summers  are  warm  and  pretty  regular,  though  somewhat  subject  to 
tornadoes.  Spring  and  autumn  are  very  pleasant ;  and  the  winters  gene- 
rally mild.  In  some  parts,  near  the  marshes  and  stagnant  waters,  the  inhab- 
itants are  subject  to  the  fever  and  ague  ;  but  the  climate,  generally,  is  ac- 
counted remarkably  healthful. 

Ohio  takes  the  lead  among  the  western  States  with  regard  to  manufac- 
tures. Some  of  the  most  important  manufacturing  towns  are  Cincinnati, 
Zanesville,  Steubenville,  and  Chillicothe.  The  fabrics  of  these  manufacto- 
ries have  found  their  way  even  to  the  cities  on  the  Atlantic  seaboard,  and 
entered  into  successful  competition  with  the  finished  articles  of  European 
manufacture. 

The  exports  from  this  State  consist  of  flour,  corn,  hemp,  flax,  beef,  pork, 
smoked  hams  of  venison,  whiskey,  peach-brandy,  and  lumber. 

The  important  interests  of  education  have  by  no  means  been  neglected  in 
Ohio.  The  principal  seminaries  in  this  State  are  the  University  of  Ohio,  at 
Athens ;  Miami  University,  at  Oxford  ;  Western  Reserve  College,  at  Hud- 
son ;  Kenyon  College,  at  Gambier,  and  the  Medical  College  of  Ohio,  at 
Cincinnati. 

A  system  of  common  schools  has  been  lately  introduced  by  law  into  this 
State.  "  An  act  to  provide  for  the  support  and  better  regulation  of  com- 
mon schools"  was  passed  by  the  Legislature  in  March,  1831,  "to  take 
effect  and  be  in  force  from  and  after  the  first  day  of  May"  following.  This 
act  declares,  "  that  a  fund  shall  be  raised  in  the  several  counties  in  the 
State  for  the  use  of  common  schools,  for  the  instruction  of  the  white  youth 


OHIO.                                                         301 

of  every  class  and  grade,  without  distinction,  in  reading,  writing,  and 
arithmetic,  and  other  necessary  branches  of  education  ;  —  that  for  this  pur- 
pose there  shall  be  annually  levied  and  assessed  upon  the  ad   valorem 
amount  of  the  general  list  of  taxable  property  in  each  county  of  the  State,

302  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 
CANALS. 

The  Ohio  State  canals  are  the  Ohio  Canal,  which  connects  Lake  Erie, 
at  Cleveland,  with  the  Ohio  river,  at  Portsmouth  ;  and  the  Miami  Canal, 
which  connects  the  town  of  Dayton,  situated  on  the  Great  Miami  river,  with 
the  Ohio  river,  at  Cincinnati.

Hamilton  side-cut, 1\    ." 66  miles. 

Total  length  of  canals  in  Ohio  constructed  at  the  public  expense,  and  owned 

by  the  State, - 400     " 

Lancaster  lateral  canal,  constructed  by  the  citizens  of  Lancaster,  under  an 

act  of  incorporation, 9     " 

Total  length  of  canals  in  Ohio, ,  409  miles. 

The  Ohio  Canal  is  now  completed.  This  great  work  was  commenced 
on  the  4th  of  July,  1825,  and  has  been  carried  forward  at  a  steady  rate. 
Although  many  difficulties  have  been  encountered  in  its  prosecution,  it  has 
already  imparted  a  new  aspect  to  the  country  through  which  it  passes,  and 
has  in  many  places  quadrupled  the  value  of  the  land  near  its  course. 

The  Miami  Canal  has  been  navigated  from  Dayton  to  the  head  of  the 
Main  street  in  Cincinnati,  since  the  spring  of  1829. 

It  is  expected  that  a  second  division  of  this  work  will  be  commenced  in 
the  course  of  a  year,  under  the  provisions  of  an  act  of  the  Legislature, 
passed  at  the  last  session.  This  division  will  extend  from  Dayton  to  the 
valley  of  the  Miami  river,  30  or  35  miles.  And  it  is  believed  that  the  time 
is  not  distant,  when  a  still  further  extension  of  this  canal  will  unite  it,  at 
Defiance,  with  the  Wabash  and  Maumee  Canal,  now  constructing  by  the 
State  of  Indiana ;  and  that  thence  the  two  will  be  extended  by  a  common 
trunk  to  Lake  Erie,  at  Maumee  Bay. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

The  following  Rail-road  Companies  have  been  incorporated  by  the  Legis- 
lature : — Richmond,  Eaton,  and  Miami ;  Mad-river  and  Lake  Erie ;  Port 
Clinton  and  Lower  Sandusky  ;  Franklin,  Springborough,  and  Wilmington  ; 
Erie  and  Ohio ;  Columbus,  Delaware,  Marion,  and  Sandusky ;  Cincinnati 
and  St.  Louis  ;  Cincinnati,  Harrison,  and  Indianapolis ;  Pennsylvania  and 
Ohio ;  Milan  and  Newark ;  Milan  and  Columbus ;  Chillicothe  and  Lebanon. 

Mad-river  and  Lake  Erie  Rail-road  is  to  commence  at  Dayton,  at  the 
head  of  the  Miami  Canal,  and  extend  to  Sandusky  on  Lake  Erie,  thus,  by 
means  of  the  canal  and  rail-road,  opening  a  communication  between  Cin- 
cinnati and  the  lake.  Distance,  upwards  of  200  miles. 

Pennsylvania  and  Ohio  Rail-road  is  to  commence  at  Pittsburg,  Penn., 
and  to  terminate  at  Massillon,  on  the  Ohio  Canal,  about  50  miles  south  of 


OHIO.                                                         303 

Lake  Erie.     Distance,  108  miles.     Cost,  estimated  at  from  $15,000  to 
9  18,000  per  mile. 
The  national  road  from  Cumberland  into  the  west,  is  completed  to  the 
vicinity  of  Columbus.     It  is  laid  out  from  Columbus  through  Indianapolis 
and  Terre  Haute,  in  Indiana,  to  Vandalia,  in  Illinois,  and  will  terminal  at 
St.  Louis.     There  is  nowhere  in  our  country  a  finer  road  than  the  part  of 
it  which  is  finished  from  Wheeling  to  Columbus.   It  is  now  of  great  advan- 
tage to  Ohio,  and  will  be  far  more  so  when  the  whole  line  is  completed.

MICHIGAN. 

THE  country  now  constituting  the  territory  of  Michigan,  was  visited  as 
early  as  1648,  by  Jesuit  missionaries  from  Canada,  who  converted  many 
of  the  natives  to  Christianity,  and  erected  several  chapels  in  different  parts 
of  the  country.  About  1667,  the  traffic  of  the  fur  traders  was  considered 
of  so  much  consequence  that  a  body  of  military  was  sent  from  Lower 
Canada  to  protect  them,  by  whom  Detroit  was  founded,  and  some  time 
afterwards  Michillimackinac ;  these,  in  connexion  with  other  posts,  enabled 
the  French  to  extend  their  trade  to  the  vicinity  of  the  Mississippi  river.  In 
1763,  Michigan  was  ceded,  with  other  parts  of  Canada,  to  the  British 
government.  This  region,  so  remote  from  the  Atlantic,  was  peopled  slowly, 
and  at  the  end  of  the  revolutionary  war,  when  ceded  to  the  United  States 
by  the  treaty  of  Paris,  contained  but  few  inhabitants.  Under  various  pre- 
tences the  British  colonial  agents  retained  Detroit,  with  all  that  is  now 
Michigan,  until  after  the  treaty  of  Greenville,  and  the  United  States  did  not 
obtain  actual  possession  of  the  country  until  1796.  The  territory  was

306  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


formed  in  1805,  and  had  to  sustain  more  than  a  share  of  the  vicissitudes 
of  the  last  war  between  the  United  States  and  Great  Britain,  and  was  in 
1812  actually  overrun  and  taken  possession  of  by  the  troops  of  the  latter, 
but  in  the  ensuing  season  was  retaken  by  an  army  of  the  United  States, 
under  the  command  of  General  Harrison.  Relieved  from  the  calamities  of 
war,  and  laid  open  to  Atlantic  commerce  and  emigration  by  the  great 
western  canal  of  New  York,  the  advance  of  Michigan  in  population  has 
been  rapid,  and  is  at  present  estimated  at  from  50  to  60,000  souls.  This 
territory  will  probably  be  admitted  into  the  Union  as  an  independent  State, 
in  the  course  of  the  present  or  following  year.  The  country  to  which  the 
name  of  Michigan  is  usually  confined,  is  a  large  peninsula,  with  its  base 
resting  upon  the  States  of  Ohio  and  Indiana,  and  bounded  on  the  east  and 
north-east  by  Lake  Huron,  for  a  distance  of  250  miles,  and  having  Lake 
Michigan  for  its  western  boundary,  an  extent  of  260  miles.  It  is  in  length 
about  288,  and  in  breadth  at  the  widest  part,  190  miles.  Its  area  being 
38,000  square  miles,  or  24,320,000  of  acres.  Politically  speaking,  how- 
ever, Michigan  embraces,  besides  the  territory  stated,  that  vast  region  situ- 
ated between  Lake  Michigan  and  the  Mississippi  river,  and  Lake  Superior 
and  the  State  of  Illinois,  a  territory  550  miles  in  extent  from  east  to  west, 
and  upwards  of  400  miles  from  north  to  south  ;  this  is  officially  designated 
the  territory  annexed  to  Michigan,  and  it  is  also  known  as  the  North-west 
Territory.  This  region  will  probably  soon  be  separated  from  Michigan 
proper,  and  organized  as  a  distinct  government  under  the  title  of  the  Ouis- 
consin  or  Huron  territory.  Michigan  proper  is  generally  a  level  country, 
having  no  mountains,  and  not  many  elevations  that  can  properly  be  called 
hills.  The  centre  of  the  peninsula  is  a  table-land,  elevated,  however,  but  a 
few  feet  above  the  level  of  the  lakes.  Along  the  shore  of  Lake  Huron 
there  are  in  places  high  bluffs  :  along  the  east  shore  of  Lake  Michigan  are 
immense  hills  of  pure  sand,  of  from  50  to  several  hundred  feet  in  height, 
which  have  been  blown  up  by  the  almost  constant  western  winds  sweeping 
over  the  lake  and  the  sandy  margin  on  its  eastern  side.  The  peninsula 
abounds  in  rivers :  none  of  these  have  much  extent  of  course,  and  but  few 
of  them  are  navigable  to  any  considerable  distance  inland.  Grand  river  is 
the  largest :  it  empties  into  Lake  Michigan  :  its  whole  course  is  about  150 
miles,  and  it  is  navigable  50  miles  from  the  lake  to  the  rapids  for  sloops 
and  steam-boats,  and  above  that  point  there  is  sufficient  depth  of  water  for 
boats  50  miles  farther.  The  St.  Joseph's  river  is  a  considerable  stream, 
j  and  empties  into  Lake  Michigan  at  the  south-west  angle  of  the  territory. 
It  is,  like  Grand  river,  navigable  for  large  sloops  to  the  rapids,  and  above 
them  has  a  still  farther  extent  of  boat  navigation.  It  flows  through  a  very 
fertile  region,  variegated  by  prairies  and  high  forests ;  the  country  on  this 
river  is  not  surpassed,  in  point  of  beauty  and  fertility,  by  any  in  the  Union. 
Newburyport,  Niles,  South  Bend,  and  Saranac  or  St.  Joseph's,  on  this  river, 
are  recent  settlements,  and  bid  fair  to  become  flourishing  and  prosperous 
i  towns.  A  steam-boat  trades  regularly  between  the  mouth  of  this  river  and 
Chicago,  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  lake.  The  other  considerable  streams 
which  flow  into  Lake  Michigan,  are  the  Kekamalazoo,  Maskegon,  Pent- 
water,  Monistic,  and  Aux  Betsies.  Those  which  flow  into  Lake  Erie,  are 
i  the  Maumee,  Raisin,  and  Huron  rivers.  The  Maumee  is  an  important 
stream  on  account  of  the  facilities  which  it,  in  connexion  with  the  Wabash, 
will  afford  for  inland  navigation,  by  means  of  an  intervening  canal.  This 


MICHIGAN. 


307 


river  is  navigable  for  steam-boats  up  to  the  rapids  at  Maumee  and  Perrys- 
burg  in  Ohio.  The  Clinton  is  the  only  considerable  river  which  falls  into 
Lake  St.  Clair.  The  Belle,  and  Black,  or  Dulude,  fall  into  St.  Clair  river. 
The  Saginaw,  a  considerable  and  important  river,  running  northward,  falls 
into  Saginaw  Bay,  which  is  a  part  of  Lake  Huron.  Many  other,  but 
smaller  streams,  fall  into  the  same  lake,  such  as  the  Thunder  Bay,  Sandy, 
Aux  Carpe,  and  Cheboeigon  rivers. 

T.he  eastern  parts  of  this  territory,  from  various  circumstances,  became 
first  settled.  Within  the  few  last  years  a  great  mass  of  emigrants  have 
begun  to  spread  themselves  over  this  fine  and  fertile  country.  Situated,  as 
it  is,  between  the  west,  the  south,  and  the  east,  with  greater  facilities  for 
extensive  inland  water  communication  than  any  other  country  on  the  globe, 
with  a  fertile  soil,  of  which  millions  of  acres  are  fit  for  the  plough,  with  a 
healthful  climate,  and  with  a  concurrence  of  circumstances,  inviting  north- 
ern population,  there  can  be  no  doubt  that  it  will  soon  take  its  place  as  a 
State,  and  rival  its  western  sister  States.  Wheat,  Indian  corn,  oats,  barley, 
buckwheat,  potatoes,  turnips,  peas,  apples,  pears,  plums,  cherries,  and 
peaches  are  raised  easily  and  in  abundance.  It  is  a  country  more  favorable 
to  cultivated  grasses  than  the  western  country.  In  short,  it  is  peculiarly 
fitted  for  northern  farmers.  No  inland  country,  according  to  its  age,  popu- 
lation, and  circumstances,  has  a  greater  trade.  A  number  of  steam-boats 
and  lake  vessels  are  constantly  plying  in  this  trade,  which  is  with  Macki- 
nack,  Detroit,  Chicago,  and  Ohio. 

The  climate  of  this  region,  in  consequence  of  its  being  level  and  penin- 
sular, and  surrounded  on  all  sides  but  the  south,  with  such  immense  bodies 
of  water,  is  more  temperate  and  mild  than  could  be  expected  from  its  lati- 
tude. The  southern  parts  have  mild  winters,  and  the  spring  opens  as  early 
as  in  any  part  of  the  United  States  in  the  same  latitude :  the  position  of 
the  northern  parts  must  subject  it  to  a  Canadian  temperature.  The  winter 
commences  here  early  in  November,  and  does  not  terminate  until  the  end 
of  March.  At  Detroit,  in  1818,  the  mean  heat  of  January  was  24°,  and 
in  1820,  the  mean  heat  of  July  was  69°,  of  December  27°.  At  Mackinack, 
one  of  the  most  northern  settlements  in  the  United  States,  the  mean  heat 
of  October  was  45°,  of  November  32°,  and  of  December  21°.

INDIANA. 

IN  common  with  the  extensive  '-region  on  the  waters  of  the  Ohio  and  Mis- 
sissippi, the  territory  now  forming  this  State  was  visited  at  an  early  period 
by  French  traders  and  adventurers  from  Canada.  About  the  year  1702, 
they  established  several  small  settlements  at  various  places  on  the  Wabash 
river ;  and  among  others  at  Vincennes,  which,  for  a  long  period,  was  de- 
nominated the  Post,  but  subsequently  received  its  present  name  after  that 
of  one  of  its  commanders.  The  settlers  were  for  near  a  century  almost 
separated  from  the  rest  of  mankind,  and  had,  in  many  respects,  assimilated 
themselves  with  the  savages,  with  whom  they  had  intermarried.  During 
the  war  of  the  American  revolution,  Vlncennes  was  reached  and  taken  by 
a  British  force,  and  again  reached  and  retaken  by  a  small  army,  under  the 
command  of  Colonel  George  Rogers  Clarke ;  and  the  inhabitants  mani- 
fested a  disposition  so  favorable  to  republican  principles,  that  at  the  close 
of  the  war  the  general  government  of  the  United  States  ceded  to  them  a 
tract  of  land  in  the  neighborhood  of  Vincennes.  From  that  period  until 
the  peace  established  by  the  treaty  of  Greenville,  the  widely  scattered  popu- 
lation of  this  region  suffered  severely  from  the  attacks  of  the  savages.  In 
the  year  1811,  in  consequence  of  the  murders  and  depredations  committed 
by  them,  a  military  force,  under  the  command  of  General  Harrison,  was 
sent  against  them,  by  whom  they  were  defeated,  and  compelled  to  sue  for 
peacel  During  the  late  war,  the  tide  of  emigration  was  almost  completely 
arrested.  Many  of  the  settlements  were  broken  up  by  the  savages ;  but 
immediately  on  the  termination  of  the  contest,  the  tide  set  strongly  again 
through  Ohio  to  this  State,  and  population  poured  in  upon  its  woods  and 
prairies.  It  has  since  been  filled  up  with  unexampled  rapidity.  Previous 
to  the  year  1800,  Indiana  was  included  in  the  territory  north-west  of  the 
Ohio ;  after  that  period,  Indiana,  and  the  territory  now  forming  the  State 
of  Illinois,  continued  to  be  united  under  the  title  of  Indiana  Territory,  until 
1809,  when  they  were  separated  into  distinct  territorial  governments.-  In 
December,  1815,  the  inhabitants  amounting  to  sixty  thousand,  the  Legis- 
lature petitioned  Congress  for  admission  into  the  Union,  and  the  privilege 
of  forming  a  State  constitution.  A  bill  for  this  purpose  passed  Congress 
in  April,  1816 ;  a  convention  of  delegates  met  in  conformity  to  it,  by  whom 
a  State  constitution  was  adopted,  and  Indiana  became  an  independent  State, 
and  a  member  of  the  Union,  in  December  following. 


INDIANA.  309 

The  State  of  Indiana  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Michigan  and  Lake 
Michigan ;  east  by  Ohio ;  south  by  the  Ohio  river,  which  separates  it  from 
Kentucky,  and  west  by  Illinois,  from  which  it  is  separated  in  part  by  the 
Wabash  river.  The  mean  length  is  about  260,  and  mean  breadth  140 
miles ;  area,  about  36,000  square  miles,  or  23,040,000  acres.  The  Ohio 
river  flows  along  the  southern  extremity  of  this  State  for  upwards  of  350 
miles,  estimated  by  the  course  of  the  stream.  The  principal  river,  besides 
the  Ohio,  is  the  Wabash,  with  its  numerous  branches,  of  which  the  most 
important  are  the  Salamanic  and  Mississinewa,  both  entering  on  its  south- 
ern side  in  the  upper  part  of  its  course ;  from  the  north  it  receives  the  Little, 
the  Eel,  and  Tippecanoe  rivers,  and  from  the  west  several  considerable 
streams,  having  their  course  mostly  in  the  adjoining  State  of  Illinois  ;  these 
are  the  Big  and  Little  Vermillion,  Embarrass,  Bon' Pas,  and  Little  Wabash: 
and  from  the  east  the  following  are  received,  whose  course  is  wholly  within 
this  State,  viz.  Sugar  Creek,  Raccoon  Creek,  and  White  and  Patoka  rivers. 
The  White  river  is  a  valuable  channel  for  trade,  as  it  drains  the  central 
part  of  the  State,  and  has  several  large  confluents,  of  which  its  east  and 
west  forks  are  the  principal.  In  the  north-west  part  of  the  State  are  the 
Kankakee  and  Pickamink,  both  head  waters  of  the  Illinois  river ;  in  the 
north  and  north-east  are  the  rivers  St.  Joseph  of  Lake  Michigan,  and  the 
St.  Joseph  of  Maumee;  the  former  falls  into  Lake  Michigan,  and  the  latter, 
uniting  with  the  St.  Mary's  river  at  Fort  Wayne,  forms  the  Maumee,  which 
flows  in  a  north-easterly  direction  into  Lake  Erie.  The  streams  in  the 
southern  part  of  the  State,  are  the  White  Water,  a  tributary  of  the  Miami 
river,  and  Laughery,  Indian,  and  Anderson's  creeks ;  also,  Big  and  Little 
Blue  rivers,  and  Great  and  Little  Pigeon  creeks,  all  of  which  flow  into  the 
Ohio  river. 

There  are  no  mountains  in  Indiana ;  the  country,  however,  is  more  hilly 
than  the  territory  of  Illinois,  particularly  towards  Ohio  river.  A  range  of 
hills,  called  the  Knobs,  extends  from  the  falls  of  the  Ohio  to  the  Wabash, 
in  a  south-west  direction,  which  in  many  places  produces  a  broken  and 
uneven  surface.  North  of  these  hills  lie  the  Flat  Woods,  70  miles  wide. 
Borderino-  on  all  the  principal  streams,  except  the  Ohio,  there  are  strips  of 
bottom  and  prairie  land ;  both  together,  from  three  to  six  miles  in  width. 
Between  the  Wabash  and  Lake  Michigan,  the  country  is  mostly  champaign, 
abounding  alternately  with  wood-lands,  prairies,  lakes,  and  swamps. 

A  range  of  hills  runs  parallel  with  the  Ohio,  from  the  mouth  of  the  Great 
Miami  to  Blue  River,  alternately  approaching  to  within  a  few  rods,  and  re- 
ceding to  the  distance  of  two  miles.  Immediately  below  Blue  River,  the 
hills  disappear,  and  there  is  presented  to  view  an  immense  tract  of  level 
land,  covered  with  a  heavy  growth  of  timber. 

There  are  two  kinds  of  prairies,  the  river  and  the  upland  prairies ;  the 
former  are  bottoms  destitute  of  timber,  and  are  said  to  exhibit  vestiges  of 
former  cultivation ;  the  latter  are  from  30  to  100  feet  more  elevated,  and 
are  far  more  numerous  and  extensive.  Some  of  them  are  not  larger  than 
a  common  field,  while  others  extend  farther  than  the  eye  can  reach.  They 
are  usually  bounded  by  heavily  timbered  forests,  and  not  unfrequently 
adorned  with  copses  of  small  trees.  In  spring  and  summer,  they  are 
covered  with  a  luxuriant  growth  of  grass  and  fragrant  flowers,  from  six  to 
eight  feet  high.  The  soil  of  these  plains  is  often  as  deep  and  fertile  as  the 
best  bottoms.  The  prairies  bordering  on  the  Wabash  are  particularly  rich.

Wells  have  been  dug  in  them,  where  the  vegetable  soil  was  22  feet  deep, 
under  which  was  a  stratum  of  fine  white  sand.  The  ordinary  depth  is  from 
two  to  five  feet. 
The  principal  productions  of  this  State  are  wheat,  Indian  corn,  rye,  oats, 
barley,  buckwheat,  potatoes,  pulse,  beef,  pork,  butter,  whiskey,  and  peach- 
brandy. 
Not  far  from  Big  Blue  River  there  is  a  large  cave,  the  entrance  of  which 
is  on  the  side  of  a  hill,  that  is  about  400  feet  high.     Here  are  found  great 
quantities  of  sulphate  of  magnesia,  or  Epsom  salt,  and  of  nitre,  &c. 
The  climate  is  generally  healthful  and  pleasant,  resembling  that  of  Ohio. 
The  Wabash  is  frozen  over  in  the  winter,  so  that  it  may  be  safely  crossed 
on  the  ice.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 
CANAL. 

Wabash  and  Erie  Canal.  By  the  Legislature  of  1832,  an  act  was 
passed  supplemental  to  an  act  providing  means  for  the  construction  of  this 
canal.  By  this  act,  steps  were  taken  to  realize  and  render  available  the 
donation  of  lands,  granted  for  this  purpose,  by  the  United  States.  Com- 
missioners were  appointed  to  borrow  money  on  the  credit  of  the  State  for 
the  prosecution  of  the  workj  and  a  train  of  measures  arranged  tending  to  a 
speedy  completion  of  a  union  between  the  waters  of  Lake  Erie  and  Indiana. 

RAIL-ROADS. 

Eight  joint-stock  companies  were  incorporated  by  the  same  Legislature 
for  constructing  rail-roads  from  Ohio  river  to  Indianapolis,  the  seat  of  gov- 
ernment, and  to  different  places  on  the  river  Wabash.  Capital  stock  of  all 
the  companies,  $4,000,000. 

An  act  was  passed  in  January,  1832,  to  ratify  and  confirm  an  act  of  the 
Legislature  of  Kentucky,  incorporating  a  company  to  build  a  bridge  across 
the  Ohio  river,  near  the  falls  at  Louisville.  Capital,  $500,000,  divided  into 
shares  of  $50  each.  The  privilege  of  subscribing  one- fifth  of  this  amount 
each,  is  reserved  for  a  certain  time  to  the  States  of  Kentucky  and  Indiana, 
and  the  city  of  Louisville.  Strict  provisions  are  made  for  the  security  of 
the  navigation  of  the  Ohio,  by  boats  and  vessels  of  every  description.

Ill 


ILLINOIS. 

THE  name  which  now  belongs  exclusively  to  this  State,  was,  during  a 
great  part  of  the  last  century,  bestowed  upon  all  that  vast  tract  of  country 
which  lies  north  and  west  of  the  Ohio,  and  was  derived  from  the  river  Illi- 
nois, which,  in  the  language  of  the  Indians,  by  whom  its  banks  were  inhab- 
ited, signifies  the  river  of  men.  The  first  settlements  within  the  present 
limits  of  Illinois,  were,  like  those  of  Indiana,  made  by  the  French,  and 
were  the  consequence  of  the  adventurous  enterprise  of  M.  De  la  Salle,  in 
search  of  the  Mississippi.  This  traveller  set  out  from  Canada,  in  the  year 
1670,  in  company  with  Father  Hennepin  and  a  few  followers,  and  passing 
up  the  lakes  to  the  head  of  Lake  Michigan,  descended  the  Illinois  river. 
After  remaining  some  time,  he  returned  to  Canada ;  from  whence  he  set  out 
with  a  number  of  volunteers  in  1673,  for  Illinois,  and  shortly  afterwards 
founded  the  settlements  of  Kaskaskia  and  Cahobia.  Here  La  Salle  left 
his  colony,  and  descended  the  Mississippi  to  its  mouth.  At  the  commence- 
ment of  the  eighteenth  century,  the  settlements  in  Illinois  are  represented  to 
have  'been  in  a  flourishing  situation.  The  descriptions  given  by  French 
writers  of  the  country  at  this  time,  were  of  the  most  captivating  kind ;  its 
beautiful  scenery,  fertile  prairies,  and  supposed  mineral  wealth,  were  painted 
in  glowing  colours,  and  a  new  paradise  seemed  to  open  to  Frenchmen  on 
the  banks  of  the  Illinois.  The  settlements  here,  like  those  of  Indiana, 
however,  soon  degenerated,  and  by  degrees  assimilated  their  manners  to 
those  of  the  Indians,  among  whom  they  resided.  Of  these  savages  the 
number  and  varieties  at  the  epoch  of  the  first  settlement,  and  since,  are  not 
well  ascertained ;  in  1780,  there  were,  according  to  Hutchins,  twelve  tribes 
inhabiting  different  parts  of  this  State,  the  aggregate  number  of  whose 
warriors  amounted  to  near  6000  men.  At  the  close  of  the  revolutionary 
war,  and  by  the  treaty  of  1783,  the  country  was  claimed  under  the  char- 
ter of  Virginia,  and  held  by  that  State  until  ceded  to  the  United  States  in 
1787.  It  was  then  made  a  part  of  the  territory  north-west  of  the  Ohio 
river ;  In  1800,  when  the  present  State  of  Ohio  was,  with  Michigan,  formed 
into  a  separate  territory,  Illinois  and  Indiana  remained  united,  and  continu- 
ed one  territory  under  the  name  of  the  latter,  until  1809,  when  they  were 
separated  into  two,  and  a  distinct  territorial  government  was  established  for 
the  district  now  forming  the  State  of  Illinois.  Indiana  lying  eastward  and 
in  the  direction  of  the  stream  of  emigration,  preceded  Illinois  as  a  State : 
the  admission  of  the  latter  into  the  Union  took  place  in  December,  1818 

The  State  of  Illinois  is  bounded  north  by  the  territory  attached  to  Michi- 
gan ;  east  by  Michigan  and  the  States  of  Indiana  and  Kentucky ;  south  by 
Kentucky  and  Missouri ;  and  west  by  the  State  and  territory  of  Missouri 
Its  medium  length  is  about  350  miles,  and  medium  breadth  170 ;  the  area 
being  about  59,600  square  miles,  or  38,080,000  acres. 

The  Mississippi,  Ohio,  and  Wabash,  form  about  two-thirds  of  the  whole 
boundary  of  this  State.  The  other  most  considerable  rivers  are  the  Illinois, 
Kaskaskia,  Muddy,  Saline,  Little  Wabash,  Mackinaw,  Crow  Meadow,

Rainy,  Vermillion,    Spoon,    Rocky,    Sangamon,   Embarrass,    Fox,    Des 
Plaines,  &c. 

The  peninsula  between  the  Mississippi  and  Illinois  rivers,  has  been  sur- 
veyed for  military  bounty  lands.  Congress  appropriated  for  this  object 
3,500,000  acres ;  and  the  surface  actually  surveyed  amounts  to  an  area 
about  equal  to  240  townships,  each  6  miles  square ;  equal  to  8,640  square 
miles,  or  5,530,000  acres,  nearly.  It  was  necessary  that  the  number  sur- 
veyed should  exceed  the  number  appropriated,  as  the  act  of  Congress  pro- 
vides that  the  several  portions  granted  shall  be  fit  for  cultivation.  These 
lands  are  described  as  being  very  good. 

The  southern  and  middle  parts  of  the  State  are  for  the  most  part  level. 
The  north-western  section  is  a  hilly,  broken  country,  though  there  are  no 
high  mountains.  The  climate  resembles  that  of  Indiana  and  Ohio.  The 
low  and  wet  lands  in  the  southern  part  are  unhealthy. 

The  soil  has  been  divided  into  six  distinct  kinds.  1.  Bottom  land,  bear- 
ing a  heavy  growth  of  honey-locust,  pecan,  black-walnut,  beach,  sugar- 
maple,  buckeye,  pawpaw,  grape-vines,  &c.  This  land  is  of  the  first  quality, 
and  is  found  in  greater  or  less  quantities  on  all  the  considerable  rivers.  It 
is  of  inexhaustible  fertility,  and  is  annually  cultivated  without  manure.  2. 
Newly  formed  land,  found  at  the  mouths  and  confluences  of  rivers.  It  pro- 
duces sycamore,  cotton-wood,  water-maple,  water-ash,  elm,  willow,  oak, 
&c.  There  are  many  thousand  acres  of  this  land  at  the  mouth  of  the  Wa- 
bash,  and  at  the  confluence  of  the  Ohio  with  the  Mississippi.  It  is  annu- 
ally inundated,  and  is  unhealthy.  3.  Dry  prairies,  approaching  the  rivers 
and  bordering  on  the  bottom  land,  from  30  to  100  feet  higher,  and  from  1 
to  10  miles  wide.  These  prairies  are  destitute  of  trees,  except  where  they 
are  intersected  by  streams  of  water  and  occasional  tracts  of  woodland.  It 
has  been  estimated  that  as  much  as  two-thirds  of  the  whole  State  consists 
of  open  prairie.  The  dry  prairie  has  a  black  rich  soil,  well  adapted  to 
purposes  of  agriculture,  and  is  covered  with  rank  grass.  4.  Wet  prairie, 
found  remote  from  streams,  or  at  their  sources.  This  is  generally  cold  and 
unproductive,  abounding  with  swamps  and  ponds,  covered  with  tall  coarse 
grass.  5.  Land  covered  with  timber,  moderately  hilly,  well  watered,  and 
of  a  rich  soil.  6.  Hills,  of  a  sterile  soil  and  destitute  of  timber,  or  covered 
with  stinted  oaks  and  pines. 

The  prevailing  forest  tree  in  Illinois  is  oak,  of  which  as  many  as  13  or 
14  different  species  have  been  enumerated.  Honey-locust,  black- walnut, 
mulberry,  plum,  sugar-maple,  black-locust,  elm,  bass-wood,  beach,  buck- 
eye, hackberry,  coffee-nut,  sycamore,  spice-wood,  sassafras,  black  and 
white  haws,  crab-apple,  wild-cherry,  cucumber,  and  pawpaw,  are  found  in 
their  congenial  soils  throughout  the  State.  White  pine  is  found  on  the  head 
branches  of  the  Illinois. 

Copper  and  lead  are  found  in  several  parts  of  the  State.  Coal  has  been 
discovered  in  several  places,  on  the  Big  Muddy,  in  great  quantities  near 
Brownsville,  on  the  Kaskaskia,  near  the  town  of  that  name,  near  the  town 
of  Edwardsville  on  the  Illinois,  50  miles  above  the  Illinois  lake,  and  in 
other  .places.  Salt  water  is  found  in  several  places,  sufficient  to  furnish 
immense  quantities  of  salt.  The  famous  salt-works  belonging  to  the 
United  States  are  in  the  vicinity  of  Shawneetown.  Iron-ore  has  also  been 
discovered. 

Sulphur   springs,  chalybeate    springs,  and  very  strong  impregnations

GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


of  pure  sulphurate  of  magnesia  or  Epsom  salts,  abound  in  different 
parts. 

In  the  southern  part  of  the  State  a  number  of  sections  of  land  have  been 
reserved  from  sale  on  account  of  the  silver  ore  which  they  are  supposed  to 
contain. 

The  lead-mines  in  the  vicinity  of  Galena,  are  very  extensive  and  valuable. 
The  mineral  has  been  found  in  every  portion  of -a  tract  of  more  than  50 
miles  in  extent  in  every  direction,  and  is  supposed  to  occupy  a  territory  of 
more  than  twice  that  extent.  The  ore  lies  in  beds,  or  horizontal  strata, 
varying  in  thickness  from  one  inch  to  several  feet.  It  yields  75  per  cent, 
of  pure  lead. 

The  staple  productions  of  Illinois  are  Indian  corn,  wheat,  potatoes,  beef, 
pork,  horses,  tobacco,  and  lead.  The  castor  bean  is  raised,  and  oil  is  manu- 
factured from  it,  but  not  in  large  quantities.  Good  cotton  is  produced  for 
home  consumption,  and  is  manufactured  extensively  in  the  families  of 
farmers,  into  coarse  fabrics,  for  domestic  uses.  Hemp,  flax,  and  silk- 
worms succeed  well.  Apples,  peaches,  pears,  plums,  cherries,  grapes, 
gooseberries,  and  currants,  arrive  at  great  perfection.

INTERNAL  IMPROVEMENTS. 

The  Illinois  and  Michigan  Rail-road  is  intended  to  commence  at  Chi- 
cago, on  Lake  Michigan,  and  continue  in  a  south-westerly  direction  Hi 
miles  to  the  summit-level :  in  this  distance  the  ascent  is  only  25  feet.  After 
passing  the  summit-level  it  is  to  cross  and  continue  along  the  river  Des 
Plaines  to  the  foot  of  the  Illinois  rapids,  the  distance  of  85  miles,  with  a 
descent  of  exactly  two  feet  a  mile  :  thus  giving,  in  a  distance  of  96£  miles, 
only  193  feet  of  rise  and  fall.  From  the  termination  of  this  rail-road,  the 
Illinois  river  is  navigable  about  250  miles  to  the  Mississippi. 

A  canal  has  been  for  some  time  past  projected,  to  traverse  the  same  route 
as  that  described  above  for  the  rail-road.  The  route  has  been  surveyed, 
and  about  480,000  acres  of  land  granted  by  the  general  government  to 
the  State  for  carrying  it  on.  Much  greater  difficulties  than  were  at  first 
anticipated,  have  been  ascertained  to  exist  in  the  nature  of  the  ground,  from 
Chicago  to  the  Des  Plaines  river,  a  distance  of  20  miles,  there  being  a  sub- 
stratum of  solid  limestone  a  few  feet  below  the  surface.  This  circumstance 
will  probably  render  the  rail-road  the  more  eligible  improvement ;  the  com- 
pletion of  either  or  both  of  them,  will  make  Chicago  a  place  of  conse- 
quence, and  will  open  up  admirable  facilities  for  the  transportation  of  mer- 
chandise from  the  eastern  to  the  Mississippi  region  of  the  Union.

316  GENERAL  VIEW  OF 


MISSOURI. 

THE  French,  to  whom  the  discovery  of  the  Mississippi  is  owing,  were 
the  first  adventurers  into  the  territory  within  the  limits  of  the  State  of 
Missouri.  Many  years,  however,  elapsed  after  the  discovery,  and  the 
colony  near  the  mouth  of  the  Mississippi  had  risen  into  considerable 
importance,  before  any  attempt  was  made  to  form  a  settlement  so  high  up 
the  river  as  its  junction  with  the  Missouri.  The  first  settlers  generally 
planted  themselves  on  the  eastern  side  of  the  Mississippi.  Previous  to  the 
treaty  of  peace  of  1763,  by  which  Canada  was  ceded  to  Great  Britain,  few 
grants  of  land  had  been  made  on  the  western  bank,  and  these  were  mostly 
for  the  purpose  of  mining.  The  first  permanent  settlements  in  the  State 
of  Missouri  appear  to  have  been  made  at  St.  Genevieve  and  New  Bourbon, 
which  were  founded  soon  after  the  peace  of  1763.  In  the  succeeding  year, 
St.  Louis,  the  principal  town  in  the  State,  was  commenced.  It  was  founded 
by  a  company  of  traders,  associated  under  the  name  of  Pierre,  Laclade, 
Maxan,  &  Co.,  who  rightly  conceived  it  to  be  a  spot  where  the  trade  of  the 
Missouri,  the  Mississippi,  and  the  other  great  rivers  of  that  region,  was 
likely  to  centre.  In  1780,  St.  Charles,  on  the  Missouri,  was  established ; 
and  in  1787,  New  Madrid,  on  the  Mississippi,  which  had  been  previously 
a  settlement  of  hunters  and  traders,  was  laid  out  in  the  form  of  a  regular 
built  town,  under  the  direction  of  Gen.  Morgan,  of  New  Jersey.  The 
settlements  and  towns  remained  feeble  and  scattered  until  after  the  cession 
of  Louisiana  to  the  United  States.  In  1804,  Louisiana  was  divided,  and 
the  territory  of  Missouri  created.  Emigration,  though  not  very  rapid, 
carried  the  population  in  1819  to  the  constitutional  amount  to  entitle  the 
people  to  a  State  government.  Application  was  accordingly  made  to  Con- 
gress, at  the  session  of  1819-20,  and  after  a  stormy  and  protracted  debate, 
turning  principally  on  the  admission  or  rejection  of  slavery,  permission 
was  given  to  the  people  of  Missouri  to  form  a  constitution,  admitting  slavery 
under  certain  restrictions.  Complying  with  the  conditions,  a  constitution 
was  formed,  and  on  the  10th  of  August,  1821,  Missouri  became  one  of  the 
United  States. 

This  State  is  bounded  north  and  west  by  the  Missouri  Territory ;  easl 
by  the  Mississippi  river,  which  separates  it  from  Illinois,  Kentucky,  and 
Tennessee  ;  and  south  by  Arkansas  Territory.  Its  length  is  about  280 
miles,  and  medium  breadth  220;  the  area  being  61,600  square  miles,  or 
39,424,000  acres. 

The  Mississippi  river  runs  550  miles  along  the  eastern  border  of  the 
State,  whilst  the  Missouri  flows  384  miles  through  it,  and  enters  the  Mis- 
sissippi. The  western  line  of  this  State  is  the  meridian  which  passes 
through  the  point  of  junction  of  the  Kansas  and  the  Missouri  rivers. 

Besides  the  great  rivers  Mississippi  and  Missouri,  this  State  is  watered 
by  various  others  of  considerable  magnitude.  The  largest  are  the  Osage, 
Grand,  Salt,  Chariton,  Gasconade,  Merrimac  or  Maramec,  Big  Black,  and 
St.  Francis.  The  Osage  is  a  large  river,  navigable  for  boats  660  miles. 

Steam-boat  navigation  from  St.  Louis. — St.  Louis  is  1,200  miles,  by  the 
course  of  the  river,  above  New  Orleans,  and  is,  next,  to  that  city,  the  largest 
and  most  commercial  town  on  the  Mississippi.  In  the  summer  of  1831, 
there  were  six  steam-boats  regularly  employed  between  St.  Louis  and  New 
Orleans.  A  trip  from  one  place  to  the  other  and  back  again  usually  occu-

pies  24  days;  the  shortest  time  in  which  one  was  ever  made,  18  days. 
The  usual  fare  for  cabin  passengers  descending,  $20 ;  ascending,  $25  ;  for 
deck  passengers,  $5  either  way.  Freight  per  lOOlbs.  descending,  37^ 
cents  ;  ascending,  62£  cents. 

From  St.  Louis  to  Louisville,  630  miles :  10  boats  are  regularly  employ- 
ed :  usual  time  of  a  trip,  10  or  11  days  ;  the  passage  one  way  usually  being 
somewhat  more  than  three  days ;  fare  of  cabin  passengers  about  $15,  either 
way ;  deck  passengers,  $4  ;  freight  about  25  cents  per  lOOlbs.  Boats 
also  run  regularly  to  Cincinnati,  150  miles  above  Louisville. 

From  St.  Louis  to  Fever  River,  about  480  miles :  several  steam-boats 
are  regularly  employed:  time  occupied  by  a  trip,  about  10  days  :  fare  for 
passengers  ascending,  $12  ;  descending,  $9.  The  route  of  some  of  the 
boats  is  occasionally  extended  to  St.  Peter's  River,  400  miles  further  up. 

In  1831,  two  boats  were  employed  in  running  from  St.  Louis  up  the 
Missouri  to  Franklin,  200  miles,  and  to  Fort  Leavenworth,  200  miles 
further  :  freight  to  Franklin  75  cents  per  lOOlbs.,  and  to  Fort  Leavenworth 
from  $1.25  to  $1.50 ;  from  Franklin  down,  25  cents  per  lOOlbs. 

From  St.  Louis  to  Pekin,  on  Illinois  river,  180  miles :  several  boats  are 
regularly  employed.  Steam-boats,  also,  come  occasionally  to  St.  Louis 
from  Pittsburg  and  other  places. 

A  great  proportion  of  the  land  in  this  State  is  of  the  richest  kind,  pro- 
ducing corn,  wheat,  rye,  oats,  flax,  hemp,  and  tobacco,  in  great  abundance. 
The  lands  bordering  on  the  Missouri,  are  exceedingly  rich.  They  consist 
of  a  stratum  of  black  alluvial  soil,  of  unknown  depth.  As  you  recede 
from  the  banks  of  the  rivers,  the  land  rises,  passing  sometimes  gradually, 
and  sometimes  abruptly,  into  elevated  barrens,  flinty  ridges,  and  rocky 
cliffs.  A  portion  of  the  State  is,  therefore,  unfit  for  cultivation  ;  but  this 
part  of  it,  however,  is  rich  in  mineral  treasures.  The  land  is  either  very 
fertile  or  very  poor ;  it  is  either  bottom  land  or  cliff,  either  prairie  or  barren  : 
there  is  very  little  of  an  intermediate  quality.  The  climate  is  remarkably 
serene  and  temperate,  and  very  favorable  to  health. 

The  most  remarkable  feature  in  Missouri  is  its  lead-mines,  which  are 
estimated  to  cover  an  area  of  about  3,000  square  miles.  The  centre  of 
the  lead-mine  district  is  about  70  miles  south-west  from  St.  Louis,  and  the 
principal  diggings  are  included  in  an  extent  of  30  miles  in  one  direction  by 
15  in  another.  The  lead-ore  is  found  in  detached  masses,  and  not  in  veins. 
The  business  of  mining  is,  consequently,  very  uncertain.  The  ore  is  of 
that  species  called  galena,  and  yields  from  75  to  80  per  cent.  About 
3,000,000  pounds  of  lead  are  annually  made,  giving  employment  to  about 
1,200  hands.  In  this  region,  are  likewise  found  copper,  zinc,  manganese, 
antimony,  iron,  calamine,  cobalt,  &c.  These  lead-mines  were  wrought 
by  the  French,  100  years  ago.

MISSOURI  TERRITORY. 

THIS  vast  extent  of  country,  lying  between  the  State  of  Missouri,  Ar- 
kansas Territory,  and  the  Mississippi  river  on  the  east,  and  the. Rocky 
Mountains  on  the  west,  comprises  the  greater  part  of  the  western  slope  of 
the  Mississippi  valley,  and  is  almost  wholly  uninhabited,  except  by  Indians. 
It  is  part  of  the  Louisiana  purchase,  and  has  been  explored  by  Lewis  and 
Clark,  by  Pike,  and  the  gentlemen  of  Long's  expedition.  The  number  of  In- 
dians in  this  territory,  is  estimated  at  from  120,000  to  140,000.  The  Sioux, 
or  Dacotahs,  Pawnees,  and  Osages,  are  the  most  numerous  and  powerful. 

The  surface  and  soil  of  this  great  territory  are  different  from  any  other 
of  the  same  dimensions  on  the  globe.  The  lower  courses  of  the  rivers  that 
enter  the  Mississippi  from  this  region,  are  wooded.  In  proportion  as  we 
ascend  towards  the  mountains,  the  wood  becomes  more  scarce,  and  the 
upper  tributaries  of  those  streams  run  through  open  prairies.  There  is 
also  a  fertile  belt  along  the  banks  of  all  these  streams,  but  in  proportion  as 
we  diverge  from  them,  the  land  becomes  more  sterile  and  parched.  We 
sometimes  travel  whole  days,  without  seeing  water.-  A  large  portion  of  this 
country  may  be  likened  to  the  Great  Sahara,  or  African  desert.  There  is, 
however,  in  the  most  sterile  parts,  a  thin  sward  of  grass  and  herbage. — 
Countless  droves  of  buffaloes,  elk,  and  deer,  range  upon  these  vast  prairies.

hey  will  probably,  at  some  future  period  of  our  national  existence,  be 
placed  by  herds  of  domestic  cattle,  and  flocks  of  sheep,  followed  by  mov-  [ 
g  bands  of  shepherds.  To  the  west  of  these  plains,  the  Rocky  Mountains  \ 
se  up  in  an  abrupt  manner,  presenting  a  steep  front,  with  numerous  frown-  i 
g,  rocky  precipices,  and  having  many  summits,  covered  with  perpetual1 
now.  Their  black,  precipitous,  and  desolate  appearance,  has  probably! 
btained  for  them  the  name  of  the  Rocky  Mountains.  They  separate  thei 
waters  of  the  great  tributaries  of  the  Mississippi  from  those  that  fall  intoj 
Columbia,  Colorado,  and  other  waters  of  the  Pacific,  In  many  places,' 
ie  waters  that  run  into  the  tributaries  of  the  Mississippi,  rise  near  those 
lat  fall  into  the  Pacific.  Thus  has  Nature  kindly  provided  points  of  easy 
ransit  from  the  eastern  to  the  western  side  of  these  frowning  and  appa- 

ntly  impassable  barriers.  It  is  asserted,  by  persons  engaged  in  the  fur 
rade,  that  following  up  the  valleys  of  the  sources  of  the  Platte  river  to  the] 
pposite  valleys  of  the  waters  that  flow  into  the  Pacific,  a  good  road  was 
ound,  and  easily  passable  by  loaded  wagons. 

The  great  river  of  this  territory  is  the  Missouri,  which,  with  its  tributa- 
ies,  drain  three-fourths  of  it;  the  principal  of  which  are,  the  Yellow-Stone, 
r  Roche  .Tau'ne,  Little  Missouri,  Running  Water,  Platte,  and  Konzas,  with 
heir  numerous  branches,  which  enter  on  its  south  and  west  sides,  and  the

liver,  of  Lake  Winnepeek,  flows  for  some  distance  through  the  north-east- 
rn  part  of  this  region  :  its  principal  branch  is  the  Assiniboine,  one  of 
vhose  tributaries  rises  within  a  mile  of  the  north  bank  of  the  Missouri, 
led  River  is  a  broad,  deep,  and  interesting  stream,  abounding  with  fish, 
nd  the  country  along  its  banks  with  elk  and  buffaloes.  It  is  on  the  banks 
if  this  remote  river,  that  Pembina,  Lord  Selkirk's  interesting  settlement,  is 
ocated,  just  within  the  northern  boundary  of  the  United  States.  The  Ar- 
cansas  river  forms,  for  a  considerable  part  of  its  upper  course,  a  portion  of 
he  national  boundary.  The  head  waters  of  this  stream  were  first  explored 
:>y  Pike,  and  afterwards  more  thoroughly  by  Long.  It  runs  through  a 
country  where  the  traveller  can  often  see  nothing  but  a  grassy  plain,  bound- 
"ess  to  the  vision.  The  Semerone,  or  Negracka,  Grand,  Saline,  and  the 
Canadian  river,  which  enters  on  its  south  side,  near  600  miles  from  the 
Mississippi,  are  the  most  important  of  its  branches. 

The  most  considerable  streams  which  enter  the  Mississippi,  in  this  terri- 
tory, are  the  St.  Peter's,  Lower  Iowa,  and  the  river  Des  Moines.  The  St. 
Peter's  enters  the  Mississippi  about  10  miles  below  the  falls  of  St.  Anthony, 
by  a  mouth  150  yards  wide,  and  a  depth  of  15  feet  water.  Fort  Snelling, 
a  military  garrison  belonging  to  the  United  States,  stands  on  the  south  bank 
of  the  Mississippi,  at  the  junction  of  the  two  rivers.  It  is  the  most  remote 
post  in  this  section  of  the  Union.  The  other  military  posts  of  the  United 
States  are  Cantonment  Leavenworth,  on  the  Missouri  river,  a  short  distance 
above  the  Little  Platte,  and  beyond  the  western  limits  of  the  State  of  Mis- 
souri. Cantonment  or  Fort  Gibson,  is  situated  on  Grand  River,  two  miles 
above  its  junction  with  the  Arkansas.  This  is  the  most  remote  point  of 
steam-boat  navigation  on  the  Arkansas  river,  it  being  640  miles  from  the 
Mississippi  by  the  meanders  of  the  river.  FortTowson  is  on  the  Kiameche 
a  branch  of  the  Red  River,  just  above  its  junction  with  that  stream,  and  « 
few  miles  beyond  the  western  boundary  of  Arkansas  territory, 
posts  are  all  garrisoned  by  United  States'  troops,  and  are  intended  t

and  keep  in  awe  the  Indian  tribes  in  their  vicinity.  On  our  General  Map 
of  the  United  States  will  be  found  Fort  Calhoun,  at  the  Council  Bluffs,  on 
the  Missouri  river,  a  short  distance  above  the  Platte  river.  This  was  a  mili- 
tary station  of  the  United  States,  but  has  been  for  some  time  abandoned. 
Fort  Mandan,  on  the  north  bank  of  the  Missouri,  not  far  below  the  Little 
Missouri,  was  the  wintering  place  of  Lewis  and  Clark,  in  1804-5,  on  their 
journey  to  the  Pacific  Ocean.  This  is  still  retained,  though  improperly,  on 
maps. 


OREGON  TERRITORY. 

To  this  region  the  United  States  have  acquired  a  title  by  the  Louisiana 
treaty,  by  the  discovery  of  the  principal  river,  and  by  interior  exploration. 
It  is,  however,  contested  by  Great  Britain,  who  claims,  not  that  the  title  is 
in  her,  but  that  the  region  is  unappropriated,  and  open  to  the  first  comer. 
By  a  convention  concluded  in  1828,  to  last  twelve  years,  it  was  agreed 
between  the  United  States  and  Great  Britain  that  neither  government  should 
take  possession  of  it,  or  occupy  it,  to  the  exclusion  of  the  other,  during  the 
period  of  the  convention,  which  either  party  might  renounce  upon  giving 
twelve  months'  notice. 

This  territory  has  been  so  named  in  the  congressional  discussions  that 
have  taken  place  in  reference  to  the  country.  It  was  first  discovered  by 
the  Spaniards,  who,  however,  did  not  penetrate  into  the  interior.  In  1791 
Captain  Gray,  of  the  ship  Columbia,  of  Boston,  entered  the  great  river  of 
this  region,  and  from  him  it  received  the  name  of  his  ship.  The  celebrated 
navigator,  Capt.  Vancouver,  was  then  at  Nootka  Sound,  and  the  discovery 
was  very  frankly  and  fortunately  communicated  to  him,  who  sent  one  of 
his  principal  officers  to  examine  the  channel,  and  in  his  narrative  admits 
the  fact ;  thus  placing  the  right  of  prior  discovery  in  the  United  States, 
beyond  dispute,  on  British  evidence.  In  1805,  Lewis  and  Clark  were  sent 
out  by  the  United  States'  Government,  for  the  express  purpose  of  exploring 
this  country :  they  navigated  the  Missouri  to  its  source,  and  crossing  the 
Rocky  Mountains,  descended  the  Columbia  river  to  the  Pacific  Ocean,  and 
spent  the  winter  on  its  shores ;  they  returned  by  the  same  river  to  the 
mountains,  and  most  of  the  exact  information  that  we  have  of  the  country 
is  from  them.  The  question  of  settling  this  territory  permanently,  has 
been  more  than  once  debated  in  Congress :  were  such  settlement  author- 
ized, and  rendered  secure  by  the  requisite  military  establishments,  there  can 
be  no  doubt  that  it  would  receive  large  accessions  of  settlers.  Some  attempts 
have  been  made  by  individuals  to  induce  the  United  States'  Government  to 
take  possession  formally  of  the  territory;  and  in  1810,  a  private  expedi- 
tion, at  the  expense  and  under  the  direction  of  John  Jacob  Astor,  Esq.  of 
New  York,  actually  formed  an  establishment,  and  named  the  principal  depot 
Astoria.  This  colony  of  120  men/went  out  well  provided  for  trade  and 
agriculture.  Two  years  after  the  first  settlement  of  Astoria,  they  had 
established  themselves  at  five  other  places ;  these  posts,  however,  have  not 
been  sustained :  some  have  been  abandoned,  and  others  have  passed  into 
the  possession  of  the  British  Hudson's  Bay  Company,  which  has  trading 
establishments,  extending  through  various  parts  of  this  region,  from  the 
mountains  to  the  Pacific.  The  boundary  of  this  great  region  on  the  north 


OREGON  TERRITORY.  321 


is  the  parallel  of  54°  40',*  north  latitude,  which  forms  a  provisional  bound- 
ary line  between  this  territory  and  the  Russian  American  possessions ;  on 
the  south  the  parallel  of  42°  north  latitude  separates  it  from  the  Republic 
of  Mexico ;  on  the  east  is  the  territory  of  Missouri ;  and  on  the  west  the 
Pacific  Ocean.  The  surface  of  the  country,  so  far  as  it  is  known,  is  bro- 
ken and  mountainous;  it  is  traversed  on  its  eastern  boundary  by  the  vast 
ridges  of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  many  of  the  elevated  peaks  of  which  rise 
above  the  limits  of  perpetual  congelation.  Westward  of  the  mountains  the 
country  descends  by  regular  slopes,  in  form  of  immense  terraces  or  descend- 
ing plains,  disposed  regularly  one  below  the  other.  At  the  distance  of 
from  120  to  160  miles  from  the  Pacific,  and  nearly  parallel  with  the  coast, 
a  range  of  mountains  extend,  which  have  as  yet  received  no  general  desig- 
nation ;  the  highest  peaks  have  been  named  Mount  Jefferson,  Mount  Hood, 
Mount  St.  Helen's,  Mount  Regnier,  &c.  The  only  rivers  explored  in  this 
territory  are  the  Columbia  or  Oregon,  and  its  branches.  This  noble  stream 
has  its  head  waters  near  those  of  the  Missouri,  and  collects  its  tribute  for  a 
wide  extent  along  the  western  dividing  ridges  of  the  Rocky  Mountains ;  its 
principal  tributaries  are  Lewis',  Clark's  or  Flat  Head,  M'Gillivray's,  Okina- 
gan,  and  the  Multnomah  rivers.  The  Columbia  and  its  branches  abound  in 
the  finest  salmon,  which  seem  to  constitute  the  chief  article  of  food  of  the 
natives  west  of  the  Rocky  Mountains.  Seals  and  other  aquatic  animals 
are  taken  in  great  numbers,  and  the  skins  shipped  to  China,  which  consti- 
tutes one  of  the  chief  articles  of  trade  from  this  part  of  the  world.  The 
country  bordering  on  the  Columbia  and  its  branches,  is  represented  as  hav- 
ing a  good  soil,  and  is  covered  with  heavy  timber,  consisting  chiefly  of 
various  species  of  fir ;  many  of  the  trees  being  of  enormous  height. 

The  other  rivers  of  any  note  are  the  Caledonia  and  Frazer's  or  Tacoutche 
Tesse,  (and  its  principal  tributary  Thompson's  river) :  these  flow  into  the 
Gulf  of  Georgia.  On  the  head  waters  of  the  two  last  mentioned  streams, 
the  Hudson's  Bay  Company  has  some  trading  houses  or  forts.  There  are 
several  lakes  in  this  region ;  the  largest  are  Flat  Bow,  the  Upper  and 
Lower  Lakes  of  the  Columbia,  Caledonia  Lake,  the  source  of  the  river  of 
that  name,  and  the  Okinagan  Lake,  from  which  flows  a  considerable  branch 
of  the  Columbia.  On  the  coast  of  this  territory  are  the  countries,  denomi- 
nated by  British  navigators,  New  Georgia,  and  New  Hanover ;  and  imme- 
diately north  of  the  northern  head  waters  of  the  Columbia,  and  west  of 
the  Rocky  Mountains,  is  New  Caledonia.  Of  these  remote  countries  but 
little  is  known  with  certainty.  There  are  numerous  tribes  of  Indians  west 
of  the  Rocky  Mountains,  the  whole  numbers  of  which,  within  this  territory, 
are  estimated  at  100,000.  Some  of  these  are  singularly  designated,  as 
Flat  Heads,  Flat  Bows,  Pointed  Hearts,  Pierced  Noses,  &c.  The  Shoshones 
or  Snake  Indians,  are  the  most  powerful,  and  are  supposed  to  amount  to 
about  15,000.  The  representation  of  this  region  on  our  general  map  of 
the  United  States,  is  probably  more  complete,  for  its  scale,  than  any  other 
extant :  in  addition  to  what  is  found  in  the  latest  maps,  many  items  of 
information,  derived  from  the  late  work  entitled  Ross  Cox's  Adventures  on 


*By  an  inadvertence  in  the  engraving  of  our  general  Map  of  the  United  States  the  north- 
ern boundary  line  of  this  territory  has  been  carried  along  the  parallel  of  54°.  north  latitude, 
instead  of  54°  4<y.  Those  who  may  consult  this  part  of  the  map  will  please  consider  this.  I  he 
40°of  latitude  will  be  a  belt  of  about  46J  English  miles,  which  should  be  added  on  and  north 
of  the  engraved  line.

the  Columbia  River,  have  been  introduced  into  it.  The  climate  on  the  coast 
of  the  Pacific  is  believed  to  be  milder  than  on  the  same  parallels  of  latitude 
on  the  Atlantic.  When  Lewis  and  Clark  left  this  country  in  March,  the 
prairies  were  in  blossom,  and  the  forwardness  of  the  season  seems  to  have 
corresponded  with  that  of  North  Carolina,  at  the  same  periocl.  The  win- 
ters are  rainy,  and  among  the  mountains  the  cold  is  very  severe. 


OUISCONSIN  TERRITORY. 

(Pronounced  Wiscon'sin.) 

THIS  vast  region  has  hitherto  been  politically  connected  with  Michigan ; 
but  as  that  territory  has  as  distinct  geographical  limits  as  any  State  in  the 
Union,  and  this  region  is  only  connected  with  it  by  circumstances  of  a  tem- 
porary nature,  which  no  doubt  will  in  a  short  period  cease  to  exist,  it  is 
evident  that  this  section  of  the  United  States  ought  to  be  viewed,  geograph- 
ically at  least,  as  a  territory  by  itself.  It  is  in  length,  from  east  to  west, 
about  550  miles^and  400  in  breadth,  from  north  to  south  ;  the  area  is  about 
100,000  square  miles.  It  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  Lake  Superior  and 
the  British  Possessions  ;  south  by  the  State  of  Illinois ;  east  by  Lake  Michi- 
gan, and  west  by  the  Mississippi  river,  and  by  a  line  drawn  from  its  source 
to  the  northern  boundary  of  the  United  States,  which  separates  it  from  Mis- 
souri territory.  The  principal  rivers,  besides  the  Mississippi,  are  the  Ouis- 
consin,  Chippeway,  St.  Croix,  and  Rum  River,  all  of  which  flow  into  the 
Mississippi.  The  streams  which  run  into  Lake  Superior  are  numerous,  but 
brief  in  their  length  of  course ;  the  most  considerable  of  them  are  the  St. 
Louis,  Montreal,  Ontonagon,  and  Huron.  The  Mennomonie,  Wolf,  and 
Fox  rivers  flow  into  Green  Bay.  The  largest  tributary  of  the  Mississippi, 
in  this  territory,  is  the  Ouisconsin,  which  rises  in  the  northern  interior  of 
the  country,  and  has  a  course  of  between  3  and  400  miles,  with  a  shallow  and 
rapid  current :  it  is,  however,  generally  boatable  in  good  stages  of  the  water, 
and  is  800  yards  wide  at  its  mouth.  There  is  a  portage  of  l£  miles  between 
this  and  Fox  river;  it  is  over  a  flat  prairie,  so  little  elevated  above  the  water 
level  of  the  contiguous  rivers,  that  small  craft  are  navigated,  in  seasons  of 
high  water,  from  one  stream  to  the  other.  The  Chippeway  is  a  considera- 
ble branch  of  the  Mississippi,  and  enters  just  below  Lake  Pepin  ;  it  is  half 
a  mile  wide  at  its  mouth,  and  is  navigable  for  boats  upwards  of  100  miles. 
It  communicates  by  a  short  portage  with  Lake  Superior,  by  the  Montreal 
river.  A  canal  of  six  miles,  over  a  perfectly  level  plain,  would  connect 
this  stream  with  the  preceding,  and  furnish  a  continuous  navigation  from 
Buffalo  to  the  Mississippi  river.  On  the  banks  of  the  Mennomonie,  a  tribu- 
tary of  the  Chippeway  river,  the  settlements  of  Bloomingport  and  Fairport 
have  been  formed  under  the  auspices  of,  and  on  a  tract  of  country  belonging 
to,  the  Mississippi  Land  Company  of  New  York  ;*  the  same  that  has  been 


*  This  tract  is  represented  on  the  Map.  It  is  situated  between  44°  26'  and  46°  north  lati- 
tude, and  13°  and  16°  longitude  west  from  Washington.  It  is  principally  in  Crawford  county, 
in  Ouisconsin,  or  the  territory  annexed  to  Michigan.  It  is  now  owned  and  claimed  by  an  asso- 
ciation of  gentlemen  residing  principally  in  the  State  of  New  York,  under  the  title  of  the 
Mississippi  Land  Company  of  New  York.  They  claim  it  as  grantees  of  the  heirs  of  the  late 
Captain  Jonathan  Carver,  and  their  title  was  recognized  by  the  chiefs  of  the  Sioux  Nations, 
in  1821,  and  again  formally  recognized  and  confirmed  in  1824,  by  the  chiefs,  before  the  late 
Wm.  P.  Van  Ness,  Esq.  Judge  of  the  District  Court  of  the  United  States  for  the  Southern  Dis- 


OUISCONSIN  TERRITORY.  323 


hitherto  known  as  Carver's  Tract.  The  soil,  in  the  vicinity  cf  the  settle- 
ment, is  of  good  quality,  partaking  of  woodland  and  prairie  in  convenient 
proportions ;  and  the  river  is  beatable  at  all  seasons,  except  when  closed  by 
ice,  affording  a  constant  communication  with  the  Mississippi.  Green  Bay 
settlement  is  %ituated  at  the  outlet  of  Fox  river,  and  is  prosperous  and 
thriving. 

Prairie  du  Chien  is  a  considerable  village ;  it  is  a  place  of  importance  as 
an  outlet  from  the  Upper  Mississippi  to  its  lower  waters.  It  is  situated  near 
a  beautiful  prairie,  and  at  certain  seasons  of  the  year  it  is  populous,  bustling, 
and  busy.  Curious  modes  of  justice,  and  of  dispatching  business,  have 
been  adopted  here  by  prescription.  Frequent  voyages  are  made  from  St. 
Louis  to  this  place  in  steam  and  keel-boats.  This  is  a  fine  region  for  hunt- 
ers :  in  the  upper  part  of  the  country,  buffaloes,  elk,  bears,  and  deer  are 
numerous,  and  beavers,  otters,  and  muskrats  are  taken  for  their  furs ;  the 
trappers  and  Indians  roam  over  immense  prairies  in  pursuit  of  their  objects. 
In  some  parts  of  it,  the  soil  is  fertile ;  white  and  yellow  pine,  and  white 
birch,  are  common  among  the  forest-trees.  All  the  water-courses,  ponds,  and 
marshes  are  covered  with  wild  rice,  which  constitutes  a  considerable  part 
of  the  food  of  the  inhabitants.  This  is  a  country  abounding  in  minerals : 
in  it  lead  is  found  in  great  abundance,  and  also  copper  and  iron.  The  lead 
region  is  in  the  southern  part  of  the  territory ;  it  extends  from  the  Ouiscon- 
sin  to  Rock  river,  and  is  probably  200  miles  in  length,  by  100  in  breadth. 
The  ore  is  supposed  to  be  inexhaustible,  and  very  rich,  yielding  from  50  to 
85  per  cent.  The  southern  parts  of  this  extensive  region,  possess  a  cli- 
mate comparatively  mild,  and  not  much  unlike  that  of  the  northern  parts 
of  Missouri.  At  the  Falls  of  St.  Anthony,  the  summers  are  temperate,  and 
the  winters  frequently  very  cold.  The  whole  population  is  at  present  esti- 
mated at  from  20,000  to  25,000. 

The  Mississippi  river  was  ascended  above  the  Falls  of  St.  Anthony,  as 
early  as  1680,  by  Father  Hennepin,  who  remained  some  time  in  the  coun- 
try, and  endeavored  to  convert  the  savages  to  Christianity.  This  territory 
was  also  subsequently  visited  by  La  Hontan,  who  traversed  it  to  some  ex- 
tent ;  the  geographical  descriptions  of  both  are,  however,  difficult  to  be  recog- 
nized at  this  time.  Between  the  years  1766  and  1768,  Capt.  Jonathan  Carver, 
an  officer  in  the  Massachusetts  provincial  line,  who  had  served  with  reputa- 
tion under  General  Wolfe,  in  the  conquest  of  Canada,  visited  and  explored 
a  considerable  portion  of  this  region.  He  remained  some  time  among  the 
natives,  and  succeeded  in  an  eminent  degree  in  gaining  their  confidence  and 
friendship.  He  afterwards  visited  England,  for  the  purpose  of  publishing 
an  account  of  his  travels,  and  obtaining  remuneration  from  the  British 
government  for  his  services  in  the  prosecution  of  what  was  certainly  an 
object  of  great  national  advantage,  the  country  he  had  explored  being  at 
that  period  almost  entirely  unknown  in  England.  He  was,  however,  treated 


trict  of  New  York.  The  deed,  or  gift  from  the  Indians  to  Captain  Carver,  was  dated  on  the 
first  of  May,  1767,  and  is  stated  to  have  been  granted  for  services  rendered  to  the  Indians 
during  Carver's  visit  among  them;  and  copies  of  it  will  be  found  in  the  second  edition  of  Car- 
ver's Travels,  published  in  London  in  1781,  and  in  the  archives  of  Congress,  and  of  the  War 
Department  of  the  United  States.  "The  tract  contains  between  eight  and  nine  millions  of 
acres  of  land,  and  is  described  as  beginning  at  the  Falls  of  St.  Anthony,  on  the  east  bank  of 


lish  miles  per  day  ;  and  from  thence  to  the  Falls  of  St.  Anlhony,  in  a  direct  straight  line.

with  marked  ingratitude,  and  not  only  failed  in  obtaining  remuneration  for 
his  services,  but  his  charts  and  papers,  which  he  had  previously  submitted 
to  government,  were  withheld  from  him,  so  that  he  was  prevented  from  pub- 
lishing his  work  until  nearly  ten  years  afterwards.  There  can  be  little 
doubt  that  the  principal  if  not  the  sole  reason,  why  Captain  Carver  was  dis- 
appointed in  the  support  he  expected  from  the  British  government  for  his 
services,  was  owing  to  the  peculiar  condition  of  the  American  colonies  and 
Great  Britain.  The  work  of  Carver  presented  a  favorable  view  of  the 
country  and  its  future  resources,  and  it  did  not  accord  with  the  designs  of 
the  ministry  of  that  day  to  give  it  sanction  or  currency.  The  most  modern 
and  accurate  account  of  this  country,  is  to  be  found  in  Colonel  Long's 
Second  Expedition. 

The  military  posts  are  Fort  Brady,  at  the  Sault  de  St.  Mary ;  Fort  How- 
ard, at  Green  Bay ;  Fort  Winnebago,  at  the  Portage,  between  the  Fox  and 
Ouisconsin  rivers ;  and  Fort  Crawford,  at  the  junction  of  the  Mississippi  and 
Ouisconsin,  below  and  adjoining  the  village  of  Prairie  du  Chien,  all  of  which 
are  garrisoned  by  troops  belonging  to  the  United  States'  army. 

A  bill  is  now  before  the  Congress  of  the  United  States,  having  for  its 
object  the  admission  of  Michigan  Proper  into  the  Union,  as  a  new  State, 
and  the  organization  of  the  region  described  above  into  a  distinct  territorial 
government.  In  the  selection  of  a  general  name,  for  which  Ouisconsin 
and  Huron  have  both  been  proposed,  the  former  will  probably  be  adopted, 
in  consequence  of  being  the  name  of  its  principal  river.  The  counties  in 
this  territory  are  Brown,  Chippeway,  Crawford,  Iowa,  and  Michillimackinac, 
a  part  of  which  is  on  the  eastern  side  of  Lake  Michigan.  (For  the  popula-
